The Generation Next Forum Set For This Friday In New York
by Halogen on May 9, 2010
This coming Friday, May 14, the good folks at the Luxury Lab will host the Generation Next Forum which will dissect the characteristics, influence, and brand affinities of tomorrow’s affluent consumers, namely Generation Y. Speakers and performers from the Economist, TeenVogue, Julliard and more are expected to be at NYU’s Skirball Center for what should be a fantastic event.
With Generation Y now outnumbering baby boomers, it is more important than ever to understand this demographic on a deep level. Generation Y’s spend more time online than watching TV, 96% of them have joined social networks, and 80% sleep with their phone next to their bed. The Generation Next Forum will delve into these staggering numbers and help make sense of them as they relate to your brand.
The Generation Next Forum will feature high velocity presentations (similar to that of the TED talks) from over fifteen industry leaders. Topics such as “The Dynamics of Influence”, “What Gen Y Wants From Your Brand”, and “The Unpredictability of Gen Y” will be explored by the industry’s sharpest minds. Halogen Network’s CEO Greg Shove will speak on Day 2 of the event about “Finding Generation Y Online.” In addition, attendees will have the chance to network with upwards of 500 senior executives, view performances by emerging Gen Y artists and witness product demonstrations founded on groundbreaking industry research.
The largest gathering of prestige marketers in North America, Luxury Lab forums combine education and entertainment to inspire and enlighten. Don’t give up your chance to register and guarantee yourself a seat at Friday’s event!
