Customer preferences:
Swedish consumers have shown a strong preference for on-demand streaming services, with platforms such as Netflix and Viaplay gaining popularity. This shift in consumer behavior can be attributed to the convenience and flexibility offered by these services, allowing viewers to watch their favorite shows and movies at any time and on any device. Additionally, Swedish consumers have shown a growing interest in original content produced by streaming platforms, further driving the demand for these services.

Trends in the market:
One of the key trends in the TV & Video market in Sweden is the increasing adoption of smart TVs. These devices offer built-in internet connectivity, allowing users to access streaming services directly on their television screens. This trend has been fueled by the growing availability of high-speed internet connections in the country, making it easier for consumers to stream content without interruptions. Another trend in the market is the rise of video-on-demand (VOD) services. Swedish consumers are increasingly opting for VOD platforms that offer a wide range of content, including movies, TV shows, and documentaries. This trend is driven by the desire for personalized viewing experiences and the ability to watch content on-demand, without the need for traditional TV schedules.

Local special circumstances:

This has facilitated the growth of online streaming services, as consumers can easily stream content on their devices. Furthermore, the Swedish government has been actively promoting digitalization and the development of digital infrastructure in the country. This has created a favorable environment for the growth of the TV & Video market, as it has enabled the widespread availability of high-speed internet connections and the development of new technologies.

Underlying macroeconomic factors:

Data coverage:

The data encompasses B2C enterprises. Figures are based on Traditional TV & Home Video and OTT (over-the-top) Services. All monetary figures refer to consumer spending on digital goods or subscriptions in the respective segment. This spending factors in discounts, margins, and taxes.

Modeling approach / Segment size:

The segment size is determined through a bottom-up approach. We use annual financial reports of the market-leading companies and industry associations, third-party studies and reports, survey results from our primary research (e.g., Consumer Insights), as well as performance factors (e.g., user penetration, price per product, usage) to analyze the markets. To estimate the segment size for each country individually, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific industry associations, such as GDP, number of internet users, and internet consumption.

Forecasts:

We apply a variety of forecasting techniques, depending on the behavior of the relevant segment. For instance, the S-curve function and exponential trend smoothing are well suited for forecasting digital products and services due to the non-linear growth of technology adoption.
