Introducing the Consumer of 2027
Advocates for Privacy
Challenging the norm of constant connectivity, this group actively resists the trend of oversharing to safeguard their personal data, cultural identity, and mental health. Driven by a distrust of technology and a yearning for control, they aim to redefine privacy to reclaim their independence and contentment.
As the internet increasingly becomes a source of ‘brain rot’ – described as the degradation of one’s mental state due to the overconsumption of superficial online content – these consumers are seeking sanctuary. Companies that provide simplicity, security, discovery, and exclusivity, avoiding reliance on algorithms, will likely succeed with this demographic.
Energizers
Energizers search for humor in a world often too serious, and they consider entertainment and fun as basic human rights. Wary of AI, they will use their creativity to promote ‘funtility,’ a new concept of success blending fun with purpose.
This group primarily consists of Millennials, Gen Z, and Alphas who embrace the absurd, surreal, and humorous as ways to navigate through multiple crises and escape modern-day pressures. Their playful approach also helps them cope with negative emotions like anger, enhancing both personal and group well-being.
According to UN data, 71% of children worldwide value play because it brings them joy.
