- Kids, teens have grown up in an entirely digital world.
- Generation Z trusts social stars as much as mainstream celebrities.
Move over, millennials—there’s a hot new demo in town.
Generation Z, the kids and teens born between roughly 1996 and 2010, is gaining power as a consumer segment.

Take a look below for our findings.
