Daniel analyses the economics of TV and digital media advertising with a particular emphasis on the impact of changing regulatory frameworks and audience trends. Looking at both the macro- and micro-level, he forecasts global advertising markets and also tracks and assesses major European broadcasters' performance on a quarterly basis.

For instance, he co-authored a feasibility study on Digital Terrestrial Television for the German Government and was involved in design and analysis of a national survey on internet consumption trends as part of the World Internet Project.
