Rovi Launches Advertising Trial Program for App Developers

As connected device adoption ascends and consumer affinity for apps intensifies, new revenue opportunities are emerging such as those provided by Rovi Advertising Network, said Heather Way, senior research analyst, Parks Associates. More than ever, app developers with ad-supported business models must participate in multi-platform networks that help brands effectively reach and engage consumers in an increasingly complex and fragmented entertainment environment.

Rovi will be demonstrating the Rovi Advertising Service at Mobile World Congress and showcasing in-app advertising within third-party and Rovi applications running across a range of platforms including Smart TV, iOS, Android, and Nexus. Rovi will also be opening the trial program to additional participants. Rovi plans to make streamlined on-boarding APIs and an SDK kit available to the broader developer community later this year.
