2020 has been one of the most challenging years for the advertising sector since the Great Recession of 2008.

Key findings:
- Average CTV spend for the year is expected to reach $16MM per advertiser (+8% y/y)

- In terms of specific categories, retail, media/entertainment and telecom are the largest CTV . . .
