Explore the opportunities between brands and Gen Z
Overview
Marking a new era of collaboration between brands and Generation Z, opportunities are arising to re-assemble, decentralise and decolonise our outdated societal systems
In this presentation, we explore how the institutions that have traditionally held society together – education, business, government and the mass media – no longer hold the power of governance they once did, leaving Generation Z to step in.
Moving quickly from a period of inertia to one of great transformation, the Covid-19 pandemic and Black Lives Matter uprising have lit a collective spark of possibility. In the face of mass youth unemployment rates, educational catastrophes and the spiralling global climate emergency, traditional systems haven’t been agile enough to cope with such seismic change.
This presentation will help your brand to establish a new approach that is defined by collaboration and decentralisation, inviting Gen Z along as allies. Businesses must be ready to assist Generation Z in their grand re-assembly of society at large.
