European Display Share Falls, CPMs Rise
A recent analysis shows European display advertising’s share of media budgets declined from 17.1% to 12.8% while average CPMs rose 17% from €2.08 to €2.44. The analysis, from Amsterdam-based Objective Platform and based on €1.8 billion of European media investments, suggests advertisers are selecting higher-quality display inventory with better viewability and controllable placements rather than simply cutting display entirely. The article notes alternative explanations (format or client mix, inflation) and frames the findings as a market signal rather than definitive proof. German OVK 2026 projections expect the online display and video market to reach ~€8.2bn in 2026 (display ~€4.0bn; online video ~€4.2bn). IAB Europe benchmarks also show video commanding a majority of display investments and market participants citing media quality as a growth constraint.
