This webinar will give you an insight into the thinking of the new generation of consumers – what’s important to them, their values, and how your advertising needs to reflect it.
Beano Brain are the independent insight agency from Beano Studios. In their landmark White Paper, The Future’s Bright, The Future’s Gen Alpha, they identified how today’s children have an instinctive activism. From school strikes to removing single use plastics, the report showed that 19% of Gen Alpha have taken part in a march or protest on an issue they care about. In short, they are masters of digital, yet believe in old family values and want to save the planet.
2020 was an unprecedented year where kids faced a global pandemic, a growing climate emergency, racial conflict and increasing political segregation. Now Beano Brain are launching the findings of their latest White Paper – and ISBA members can hear about them first, giving you as brands key insight into what already is, and increasingly will be, an important consumer audience.
Join us for this exclusive webinar, where we will discover the key generational traits of Gen Alpha and the younger Gen Z, which will enable them to change the world – and what it means for advertisers and marketers.
