Introduction Welcome to K7’s Insight Report - Brand Funded Programming: Why It Matters Now Amidst a sea of depressing news about stalled TV productions, squeezed programming budgets and diminished ad revenues in 2020, there is one area that is perhaps set to benefit more than any other from the year’s upheavals - that of brand funded programming. A timely convergence of these financial pressures, combined with the diminishing impact of traditional advertising spots in a world of proliferating VOD platforms, has led both broadcasters and brands to put renewed effort into finding new ways to co-fund and co-develop original, entertaining programming between them. Different territories are at different stages on this journey, with varying regulatory and audience constraints leading to a highly complex global picture, but if you haven’t as yet taken the time to properly understand the opportunities, 2021 might be the time.
