The Media Market in Serbia 2023
Overall net media market investments in Serbia grew in 2023, driven mostly by investments from retailers, the food sector, and personal care categories, and substantially pushed by media inflation. All media channel investments, except print, increased in 2023. If this trend continues, we expect moderate overall media investment growth during 2024.
TV, OOH, and radio investment shares remained steady and stable over the years. Digital media growth has had the most impact on the decline of printed media investments, but it still leaves opportunities for niche targeting in printed titles.
TWDC rebranded Disney Channel’s Fox, Fox Life, Fox Movies, and Fox Crime to Star Channel, Star Life, Star Movies, and Star Crime in Q4 2023.

As of Q3 2023, Insider TV was included in Nielsen’s TV monitoring system, with SHR ranked 27th among cable channels in December 2023.
