LONDON--()--Technavio has announced the top five leading vendors in their recent global visual content market report. This research report also lists 10 other prominent vendors that are expected to impact the market during the forecast period.

In 2016, the market was dominated by North America, followed by Europe, APAC, and ROW. The market in Europe was led by Germany and the UK, while the market in North America was led by the US. The market in Europe is experiencing a stagnation in growth, and the market in North America has also slowed down in recent years. On the other hand, APAC is experiencing strong growth. The video footage segment will be the fastest-growing segment of the global visual content market during the forecast period.

Competitive vendor landscape

The global visual content market is experiencing only a moderate growth because of the shift in the consumption patterns of end-users. However, new players in the market are coming up with innovative business models, but they are growing at a slow pace. The rise in low-priced images has changed the market demand-supply dynamics. The players in the market compete based on portfolio, quality, pricing, and product differentiation.

The players in the market need to target business-to-consumer marketers, as these customers give greater importance to visual content than B2B marketers. Moreover, the number of B2C marketers is more compared with B2B marketers. The players in the market can target the B2C marketers to sell the images and videos that are used to promote various products and services,” says Poonam Saini, a lead retail goods and services research analyst from Technavio.

In addition to the diverse monetization models, payment methods are also expected to be a critical component of the subscription model of visual content. There are several payment options in the market like third-party wallet including mobile wallet, telecom wallet, credit card, and net banking.
