Gen Z is not the next iteration of Millennials.
These dynamic young consumers control $44 billion in spending power and are already cultural disruptors in their own right. Brands must update their practices to better accommodate Zs’ distinct generational traits, habits, and lifestyles in order to be market leaders today—and remain relevant tomorrow.
