Expansion
opportunities as the U.S. market becomes saturated and growth slows. By 2016, Netflix aims
to become a global force in the streaming industry, aiming to operate in more than 190
countries.
Challenges faced:
have excluded some countries, such as Syria. Second, regulatory restrictions vary widely
between countries, affecting content availability, service functionality, and even market access.
Netflix's ability to adapt to these regulations is critical. Likewise, localization involves not only
translating content into local languages (which is difficult to accomplish in India) but also
curating and producing content that resonates with local traditions and values.
Competition and Market:In many new markets, Netflix faces stiff competition from local
pay-TV operators and video-on-demand services that have established customer bases and
content libraries. For example, in the Indian market, India already has four major service
providers with large customer bases and content. There is a similar situation in the Japanese
market, where Netflix needs to compete with Hulu Japan and Rakuten Showtime
The huge financial costs :International expansion significantly increases Netflix's costs,
particularly in licensing global content rights and producing original content for different
markets.
Strategic Initiatives and Outlook:
differentiate itself from competitors and reduce dependence on external content providers.
