Executive Summary• The strategic opportunity is to enter the Italian market with

possible $ 846m revenue by 2017

• We can grab this opportunity by considering competition within the entire E&M category and differentiating our product in order to better reach unmet consumer needs

• The strategic alternatives are: (1) entering the Italian market with our efforts alone, (2) entering the Italian market in partnership with a relevant Italian player, or (3) entering the Italian market as a part of a wider European strategy for the company

• We recommend to enter the Italian market in synergy with Netflix European strategy because we can generate total revenue $ 397m in 2 years and $ 846 by 2017

In Italy, in 2017, spending for Internet accesswill have grown from € 7,3b to € 12b with+10% year-on-year growth. Digital productswill be 31% of E&M total spending.

Category: Demand Attractiveness

Implication: Internet access will drive consumersdemand and the entire category growth within 2017.

Italian E&M industry is risky on overall, with a medium-low degree of market attractiveness.

Market Risk Attractiveness: Italian media

Forces Reasons Mitigating Factors

Italian Entertainment & Media industry

Rivalry(MEDIUM)

Risk of triggering a price war amongcompetitors.

Focusing on add-on servicesand premium prices.

Supplier Power (HIGH)

Huge negotiation power for stars, authors & agents; now they can skiptraditional intermediation and ask for different revenue stream model.

Differentiating through tailored services to suppliers (e.g. multichannel publishing).

New entrants(MEDIUM)

Risk of product comoditization and/or price war can let new player enter the game.

Only big players with huge technologic assets and Government endorsement can realistically enter the market.

Substitute power(HIGH)

Technological convergence brings all entertainment consumes into a unique device. All entertainment segments compete for customers’ disposable time. Piracy is a potential substitute.

In Italy technological convergence is not accomplished yet: first mover will have huge advantages.

Buyer Power (MEDIUM)

Greater freedom of choice among media.

Freedom always requires sophisticated consumers.

We have high strengths and opportunities in Italy

Company & Competitive Position:

STRENGTHSuperior brand, offering & positioning

Superior operations and customer preferences insight

Superior organization agility & HR management

OPPORTUNITYAn entire customer segment up to now ignored

A legal full-service and tailor-made product can compete both with mass market home video and piracy

WEAKNESSESNot influential in Italian system of regulations and governmental authorizations

THREATSRequirement of products cultural adaptation in the target market

Some major traditional competitors are trying to fill the gap

Implication: There are unmet customer needs; traditionalplayers didn’t fill the gap in order to protect their currentleadership position.

Considering Netflix not only as part of home videosegment but of E&M on overall, we might considerinvestments for growth.

Competitive Position

Consumer: Competitive Perceptual PositionIn consumers’ mind, competition is not only within home videoplayers, but also involves broad- and narrowcast tv channels.

Home video distributors

Warner Bros Universal Medusa Niche competitors

SegmentationAdults 18-50, with a male skew. Younger people more skewed to lower prices and purchases on mass markets.

Teenagers to adults (14-45), with niche consumepatterns: science fiction, Japanese anime etc.

Frame of referenceDistributors are not visible by themselves: its product brand that drives the offer.

Same, but with slightly more focus on Italian production.

Collection. Doesn't matter if they have already a digital version.

DifferentiationA vast portfolio of titles leaded by brands (actors, directors, series), with different price level.

Same, but with Italian blockbuster successes used as a vessil of overall quality.

In-group and out-group dynamics: followers are a community.

Broadcast tv RAI Mediaset La7 Minor competitors

SegmentationPotentially the widest audience possible: adults 19-75, with a female skew. Both targeting exactly the same audience. Losing teenagers on the way.

Adults 20-50, with a slight male skew. For newspaper and book regular readers.

People 15-60, who use these channel as a second screen.

Frame of referenceThe public free broadcasting service.

The main private broadcaster. In the last 30 years completetly substituted RAI's role.

Quality entertainment & news. Here's what public opinion says.

My own local world on tv.

Differentiation

Supposed to provide quality and experimentation. Totally disrupted.

On degree of visibility: it's what is left of mass communication in Italy today.

On quality. On geographical basis.

Consumer: Competitive Perceptual Position

Pay tv Sky Mediaset Premium Fastweb TV Vodafone Infinity & similar

Segmentation

Adults 30-60, with a male skew. Affluent, successful, willing to pay for high quality content.

Families with extended consumes of broadcast tv (especially Mediaset).

Families or adults with extended consumes of Internet bandwidth.

Mobile connectivity providers' clients.

Frame of referenceDistinction. Broadcast tv is cheap; narrowcasting is something worth to pay for.

Undefined. Leveraging Mediaset brand alone as a differentiation factor is not enough to trigger a frame of reference.

All the content with my Fastweb connection, the fastest in the market.

Content I love right here on my mobile device with a little mark-up.

DifferentiationPremium price. Quality of news (the only one with a global focus).

Quality products from Mediaset portfolio at a premium price. Poor efficacy.

An add-on service for Fastweb clients. A small niche, but technologically enabled.

An add-on service for mobile device users, but 3G is not quick enough yet and wifi not so spreaded.

Digital terrestrial tv (DDTV)

Cielo Rai 4, Rai 5, RaiNews24 & similar Real Time & similar Boing & similar

SegmentationAdults 18-50, with a female skew.

Audience highly segmented on the basis of content: Rai 4 for quality entertainment, Rai5 for documentaries, RaiNews24 for news etc.

Teenagers and adults, 15-45 years old with a female skew.

Children, teenagers and their parents.

Frame of referenceA selection of unexclusive free content form Sky payed channel.

Audience deluded by Rai broadcast tv can find refuge here.

Reality-based entertainment: low-cost reality shows, talents etc.

Children entertainment.

DifferentiationQuality nonetheless, but on a delayed time compared to Sky.

It is where Rai experiments and seeks for quality. On the basis of content. On the basis of content.

Implications:• For consumers market, what leads differentiation is not

driven by distribution channels, but product brands(e.g. authors, actors, directors, movies, series etc.).

• Distributors credibility and differentiation is derived bytheir brand portfolio.

Consumer: Competitive Perceptual Position• Home video segment players are not differentiated per

se: it is their product brand portfolio that counts• On broadcast side, the historical role of Rai as quality

content provider has been heavily disrupted in the last25-30 years

• The unique leader of pay tv segment is Sky, whileMediaset Premium failed to gain a real differentiation

• Fastweb and Vodafone are trying to leverage their techsavvy niche consumers, but their content offer ispoor, not exclusive and narrow

Consumers: Competitors Brand Attributes

Main attribute Secondaryattribute Brand persona

RAI Classic Friendly A 60 year old mother and grand-mother, attended secondary schools, not many interests except family.

Mediaset Fun Accessible A 55 year old male, father, not very cultured, loves cars, sports and easy entertainment.

Sky Sophisticated/ Upscale Modern

A 45 year old professional, with high education and net income above average, speaks a good English, enjoys smart

entertainment, has only one child.

La7 Competent ModernA 50 year old man, cultured, employed in services, intellectual,

sophisticated, a bit snobbish, probably close to Italian labor party.

Fastweb Modern RuggednessA 35 year old man, not married, still living as a teenager,

probably imployead as a web developer in one of the main cities of the country.

Vodafone Personable Spontaneous A 35 year old lady, easy-going and beautiful, very connected with peers, colleagues and friend.

Among all players, only six have a defined set of brand attributes.

Newcomers (Sky, Fastweb, Vodafone, La7 target specific segments of customers,even though with different business models (e.g. subscription vs. advertising).

Consumer: Competitors Triage of Value

Mainstream media brands:• In the last 25 years, RAI has lost its

differentiation, pointing to function,emotion and experience at the same time

• Mediaset is not functional any longer,after its prestiged anchorman EnricoMentana left the company to start a newnewscast up for La7

• Sky’s approach is the most focused onfunctional benefits («the best newscast +the greatest shows») and on watchingexperience.

Consumer: Competitors Triage of Value

Target market media brands:• La7 is a mainstream media, but it is

targeted on a narrow segment of Italianpopulation, more interested in the qualityof services.

• Fastweb’ communication is entirelyfocused on fast traffic data stream (itstestimonial is the motorbike worldchampion Valentino Rossi).

• Vodafone communication is centered onconsumers feelings and entertainment.

Consumer: Brand meaning map

A culture crisis implies media crisis: The traditional role of Rai and Mediaset asmainstream cultural mediators has failed. This void has been only in part filled byniche players such are now La7 and Sky.

Within the competitive scenario, only Rai, Mediaset, La7 and Sky havesuccessfully positioned as content providers, while the others (Fastweb,Vodafone) are considered as technology add-on services.

Main meanings Insights

Rai

Tradition - Family - Education - Entertainment - Who holds the remote control? - Authority - (Official) truth -

Semplification - News - Media events (undisputed) -"Nazional-popolare"

In the last 10 years, Rai failed to define and identify events of

national interest. End of Italian spirit of "nazional-popolare".

MediasetEntertainment - Leisure - Easy - Sport - Extreme -

Excitement - News - Semplification - Prime time - Media events (pop)

More and more difficult to find new popular events to vehicle throur

mainstream tv.

La7Quality news - Critic - Independent - Intellectual - Quality entertainment - Media event (disputed) - Substitutive of

public service

La7 comes when here Rai and Mediaset fail in their mission.

SkyGlobal - Quality news - Quality entertainment - Exclusivity -

Convenient (SkyGo) - Expensive - Updated - TechnologicMain traits are “mass distinction”

and exclusivity.

Leader product brands (Rai + Mediaset) are being eroded, while Skyhas just started to shift from high-end niche to mainstream. All otherbrands are sharing a fragmented space.From mainstream media to a scenario of mass fragmentation.

Italy is a highly regulated country, with a high degree of culturalcomplexity and bureaucracy. However, there are conditions for awarm reception of Netflix novelty.

• Opinion leaders: Media have already covered Netflix, with muchinterest. Most intellectuals and opinion leaders are looking forwardto its arrival, since in Italy it is common sense that broadcast tv is“cheap”.

• Policy makers: Mainstream media are heavily connected withpolitical power. It is unlikely for a newcomer to enter and disrupt themarket without assuring that the Italian media landscape won’tchange in its substance.

• Trade unions: Netflix HR standard policies are unlikely to be appliedin Italy, since labor market is heavily regulated.

• Digital divide: wifi, 3G and 4G are not as spread as in other Westerncountries. So far, governments haven’t invested in it because theyconceived Internet as a disruptor for mainstream media landscape.

Centers of Influence & PESTLE

Italy is a high-context type of country: technology, currentpolicies and, most of all, culture are the main factors that makeinvestments in media sector so risky.

The strategic opportunity is to enter Italian E&M market inorder to gain by 2017 6m new subscribers and $ 846mrevenue in three years, with a contribution margin of-39% in 2017 (a standard for a tree-year launch).

Strategic Opportunity

Vision To become the next global leader in E&M and TV industry for the next decades.

Goals Leading the way in replacing globally the traditional “linear TV” with multi-screen Internet TV.

Objectives Entering Italian market as a part of a strategy for Western Continental Europe. More specifically for Italy:

In 2015,achieve 1m subscriber with a total amount of $ 72m revenue, reducing marketing expenses through economies of scope.

In 2017,achieve 6m subscribers and $ 846m revenue ($ 450 in 2017 only) with a -39% contribution margin.

Marketing StrategyCompetitive advantage

Our competitive advantage lays in our superior HR, our ability to extract customer insight from raw traffic data and our superior brand.

Resource strategy

In order to enter the Italian market, which has a huge potential but is also risky, we will need to use our resources (capital and labor), expecting positive return in a 5-year time.

Degree of intensity

The effort will have to be intense, but since we have already launched Netflix in other countries in Western Europe and we’re planning to do that in others, we have chance to use economies of scope.

Focus Our target is the Italian cultured middle class at first, aiming to extend to a larger audience within 2017.

• Best product performance leadership

• Best customer relationship
