Key stat: 43% of US advertisers are pulling spend from linear TV to increase investment in programmatic connected TV (CTV) advertising, per November 2023 data from Proximic.

Beyond the chart:

• US linear TV ad spend will decline by 13.3% next year, while CTV ad spend will increase by 13.3%, according to our forecast. (2024 is an outlier for linear TV due to increased ad spend from the election and Olympics.)
• Programmatic advertising will account for 84.2% of the $32.09 billion going toward US CTV video ad spend in 2025, per our forecast.

Methodology: Data is from the January 2024 Proximic "2024 State of Programmatic Report." Almost 200 US advertising decision-makers were surveyed during November 14-22, 2023. Respondents were from brands, agencies, and publishers who oversee programmatic advertising at their company.
