Premium home screen placements paired with Nexxen’s unique data and advanced TV capabilities to drive effective campaigns and full-funnel performance across region

Nexxen, the advertising technology platform powered by unique data and media, today announced that the “first-to-market” capability to programmatically activate native Smart TV inventory, “Nexxen TV Home Screen”, is now live across Asia-Pacific (“APAC”).

How Nexxen TV Home Screen Works

Through Nexxen TV Home Screen, advertisers can seamlessly access Smart TV home screen units on VIDAA-powered Smart TVs in APAC and selected markets across the world. Developed by V, VIDAA OS powers more than 50 million Smart TVs from leading brands in more than 180 markets globally.

Home Screen Runs Supreme

“The TV experience doesn’t start with playback, it starts on the home screen. In today’s world, that is TV. It’s where discovery happens, where decisions are made, and where attention is at its highest,” said Guy Edri, Chief Executive Officer, V. “For partners and advertisers, it’s not just an entry point, it’s the most valuable moment to connect with audiences at scale.”

“The Smart TV home screen creates a prime opportunity for brands to get in front of leaned-in audiences,” said Josif Zanich, Managing Director, JAPAC, Nexxen. “By pairing this premium inventory from V, one of the leading and most widely adopted platforms in the Australian market, with Nexxen’s unique data and advanced TV capabilities, advertisers can plan, activate and measure campaigns within a single platform, unlocking smarter audience engagement and ultimately driving full-funnel performance.”

Expansion across APAC

The OEM inventory available through Nexxen TV Home Screen is expected to continue expanding in the months ahead.

Nexxen TV Home Screen is powered by its demand-side platform (“DSP”), Nexxen DSP. Initial markets include Australia, Singapore, Malaysia and the Philippines.
