This renewed agreement secures the continuation of Nielsen’s comprehensive audience measurement services, serving as the trusted currency for the Danish television market, through to 31 December 2029.

The Measurement of Viewers in Denmark provides essential insights for content creators, advertisers, and media agencies, enabling informed decisions and driving the vitality of the Danish media landscape.

Viewing habits are shifting towards streaming, and it is essential to continue the ongoing development of digital measurements. The extended agreement ensures we can continue to make data-driven decisions that benefit both viewers and the broader industry and we encourage other media entities in the Danish market to pursue the benefits of being measured.”
