Mobile sub-segments will see strong growth

In emerging markets such as Indonesia, India and the Philippines, the main driver of internet advertising revenue is the increasing penetration and use of internet connectivity, particularly mobile. Mobile sub-segments will continue to see strong growth. Although devices such as CTVs will continue to grow their share of internet advertising revenue, mobile’s share of global revenue will expand from 67.8% in 2022 to 73.4% in 2027. Indeed, the internet advertising market is now – and will continue to be – very much a mobile-first proposition.

By 2027, mobile internet advertising will hold a 73% share of internet advertising revenue in the Indian market. In India’s mobile-first market, there were 30 million fixed broadband households in 2022 – a penetration rate of 10.8% – while there were 782 million mobile internet subscribers in 2022 – a penetration rate of 56%. The addressable market in India is already considerable, and there is huge headroom for further growth.
