As pay-TV and OTT become synonymous, operators in the APAC region must drive business transformation forward and adapt to current markets needs by addressing three key areas: technology, content and commercialisation, said Stéphane Le Dreau, SVP Sales APAC at NAGRA. From shifting consumer behaviour to the rapidly evolving threat of piracy, pay-TV operators across Asia have been forced into a radical top-down rethink of their business models. And with the rise of streaming platforms, pay-TV and OTT providers have an opportunity to reach new customers outside of the managed network or who dont own the providers set-top box. At ConnecTechAsia, we will showcase an array of cloud native solutions to enable the right strategy for success.
Key demonstrations and themes will centre around content value protection, active content monetisation, Android TV, Smart business operations with data analytics and AI, smart security and IoT security.

NAGRA will also highlight anti-piracy services and forensic watermarking, showing how service providers can proactively fight and disrupt the growing scale and sophistication of ever-evolving piracy threats.
As part of active content monetization, NAGRA offers OpenTV Suite. For operators seeking a ready-to deploy end-to-end OTT solution, the company has Conax GO Live, which provides live TV streaming to Android and iOS devices, with start-over and catch up TV capabilities, in less than 30 days.

Leveraging a long-standing experience in Android-based OTT and hybrid TV, the NAGRA Android Fast Track programme combines a highly secure and fully featured ecosystem of technologies, partners and services to plan hybrid and OTT deployments and help operators execute on the Android TV journey.
NAGRA also offers Nagra Insight, an AI-driven pay-TV data analytics platform, which enables service providers to make better business decisions to improve their bottom line, take control of the data they own and create personalised actions that drive monetization, along with subscriber value, content, quality of experience, as well as targeted advertising.
