The Media industry is currently among the top three most disrupted verticals due to the advent of digital technologies, highlighted Zinnov.

From last year, the Advertising and New Media segments in the Media space have witnessed further consolidation, where the Top 10 players' contribution to the overall market is ~60 and 80 respectively in each segment.

According to the study, the Overall Media & Entertainment industry reached USD 1.53 trillion in 2016, of which Broadcasting and Gaming companies account for ~41% of the overall industry size, while New Media companies have the highest annual growth rate ~17%, it read.
