Habo will soon launch the second edition of the Habo IP Index.

After publishing the first-ever study on IP value in 2022, we’re expanding our analysis to additional markets, testing the United States, the United Kingdom, and France. We're also assessing new IPs, and tracking how value has evolved in the last three years.

Ahead of this release, we’re taking a fresh look at a core element of our research: IP lifecycles

How far are we from the mass adoption of virtual reality?

Habo observes significant potential. However, while technology has driven the industry over the past several decades, substantial growth will come from content that truly resonates.

We've identified key consumer segments that are highly engaged with the VR medium, but providers must respond to their barriers and motivators to accelerate adoption.

Habo’s latest article explores how entertainment consumers in the United States, France, and the United Kingdom engage with VR today, and what this means for the industry’s potential.

The Canadian hit series Heated Rivalry has demonstrated the power of entertainment in fueling sports consumption; the NHL has even credited the show’s success as a unique driver for engaging new fans. 🏒

Habo is especially interested in assessing the intangible value of cases like this, which highlight how closely these sectors are linked and the opportunities this creates.

In 2025, Habo evaluated the total addressable market for hockey fans in the US and Canada. We look forward to quantifying the market in 2026 to identify how the sport's audiences have evolved due to the series and other contributing factors.

How do cultural contexts shape the way fans connect with sports? 🏁

Building on our F1 case study, we explored how the sport resonates between US and UK fanbases. In the UK, the sport is well-established with strong levels of engagement. The US F1 market, while growing significantly, relies more on domestic presence and entertainment value.

Considering the cultural factors that drive appeal allows sports brands to develop market-specific strategies to grow their consumer base.
