Discussion "Monetization of attention. Innovative ways to attract viewers: eco-friendly engagement vs Digital Slavery."

The future is just around the corner, in which everything we see will turn into a stream of data for analyzing our preferences. Digital banners that flow from screens into augmented reality. Each new AI model rapidly brings such a future closer. Today, the competition of video platforms is based on the competition of technologies and recommendation services much more than on the quality and depth of content. Content creators, advertising gurus, and modern technologies will work together to find an answer to the key question: to what extent are we ready to immerse the viewer in a commercialized space?

Expert discussion "Strategies for the technological development of digital TV: a balance between innovation, risk and commerce".

Video platforms transform the traditional passive viewing model into a dynamic process, increasing audience engagement in the technological context. This is how innovation becomes one of the drivers of audience growth. To the viewer, much still looks like "magic", but behind it are complex algorithms, the work of engineers and developers, as well as investments in technology. Experts will discuss the challenges of the new era, modern solutions and the latest developments.
