Cathrin, tell us a bit about yourself: What is your background and what do you research on?
I am an Assistant Professor for Digital Media Industries at Aarhus University’s Media and Journalism Department. My research currently focuses on national and EU media policy, regarding PSM and the regulation of the VoD market. In September, I started a 2.5 year research project on the European VoD market funded by the Aarhus University Research Fund. The project investigates the role the media-systemic traditions and media ecology play in the way local players respond to the competition from US-based global VoDs. The markets I will focus on are Denmark, Germany and Estonia.Read More
