Gen Z – the first generation of truly digital natives – are highly analytic and pragmatic.
According to a CM Group study, Gen Z is more averse to ads than any other generation. This young demographic is more likely than older generations to make purchases based on content-led adverts. They mobilise for various causes, value individual expression and avoid labels.
Gen Z is actively analytical and pragmatic when seeking and accepting information recommended by its trusted influencers. Though they dislike advertising, they are comfortable with native ads and sponsored content.
