The launch of the BigBang.Social App marks a significant milestone in the growth of the creator economy in India. Globally, there are over 200 million creators and India is set to have the largest base of social media content creators with the figure crossing 100 million this year, according to a report by influencer marketing firm Zefmo. The report predicts that the “organised influencer marketing” sector is expected to reach Rs 3000 crore by 2024 and the revenue share of micro influencers is set to rise from nine per cent to 14 per cent by 2024.
As the creator economy continues to flourish, it has the potential to disrupt traditional industries and redefine the way content is created, consumed, and monetised. With the right support, infrastructure, and investment, the creator economy can foster economic empowerment, job creation, and socio-cultural transformations. By providing creators with a virtual destination that celebrates their talents, fosters collaboration, and offers unparalleled opportunities, BigBang.Social is poised to redefine the landscape of digital creativity and entrepreneurship.a

TAM Sports expands monitoring to live streaming on CTV and mobile
New cross-platform framework tracks brand visibility across broadcast and streaming feeds
MUMBAI: TAM Sports, the sports intelligence arm of TAM Media Research, is widening its monitoring net. The company has expanded its advertising tracking to include live streaming across connected TV (CTV) and mobile platforms alongside traditional linear live broadcasts, sharpening its ability to measure brand presence in the fast-evolving sports media landscape.
The move comes as sports viewership increasingly splinters across multiple screens and streaming environments, pushing advertisers, sponsors and rights holders to seek credible data on how their brands perform across platforms.
For more than 15 years, TAM Sports has provided independent monitoring of sponsorship exposure for federations, leagues, teams, sponsors and agencies. By adding live streaming feeds on CTV and mobile to its analytics stack, the firm now enables stakeholders to track advertising occurrences and brand appearances across streaming environments as well as conventional television coverage.
LV Krishnan, chief executive officer, TAM Media Research, said media consumption around sports has transformed rapidly, and measurement systems must keep pace.
“Media consumption around sports has evolved rapidly, and measurement frameworks must evolve with it,” Krishnan said. “For more than a decade and a half, TAM Sports has continuously adapted to industry needs by providing credible, independent insights across platforms. This commitment is why federations, agencies and sponsors continue to rely on us as a trusted partner.”
Anshu Yardi, head, TAM Sports, said the increasingly fragmented video ecosystem has made unified analytics essential for stakeholders trying to assess the true impact of sponsorship investments.
“In today’s fragmented video environment, sponsors, agencies and franchisees need a clear understanding of how their brand communication performs across screens,” Yardi said. “TAM Sports brings together cross-platform monitoring and analytics that help stakeholders track brand visibility, benchmark competitive presence and demonstrate measurable ROI from sports partnerships.”
The platform evaluates brand exposure across several dimensions. These include advertising occurrences during live coverage, in-content brand integrations, stadium branding visibility, audio mentions, editorial logo placements in print, and presence across digital and social media. Clients can also combine the data with brand-lift studies to assess the depth and prominence of sponsorship exposure.
By consolidating these monitoring and analytics capabilities within a single platform, TAM Sports aims to give rights holders and sponsors a clearer view of how their investments perform across broadcast, streaming, digital and on-ground environments.
The company says the expanded system allows stakeholders to gauge competitive share of voice and sponsorship visibility across the broader sports media ecosystem.
In a world where fans switch effortlessly between television, phones and connected screens, the message from TAM Sports is blunt: follow the audience everywhere—or risk losing sight of the brand game altogether.
