- Mintel: Hispanic Millennials – Hispanic First, Millennial Second
Speaker: Juan Ruiz, Sr. Multicultural Analyst, Mintel
With 16.5 million people, the Hispanic Millennial generation accounts for a significant share of the Hispanic population at 29.3% and represent 21% of total U.S. Millennials. Understanding this market is essential due to its significant size and the influence that they have on older and younger Hispanic generations. In this session, you'll learn all about Hispanic Millennials: their views of the future, their aspirations and concerns, and the image they have of themselves. You also will learn how Hispanic Millennials interact with brands and what are the issues and insights marketers need to reach them in meaningful and relevant ways.
- PEOPLE en Español HOT Study: The Latina Millennial
Speaker: Monique Manso, Publisher, PEOPLE en Español
Over the years through its Hispanic Opinion Tracker, PEOPLE en Español has observed how Hispanic women are reshaping their roles as they shed traditional standards and become more empowered, confident, independent and assertive. This year's focus on Millennials is shaped not only by market factors, but also by direct brand relevance. Latina Millennials are similar to non-Hispanic whites in terms of their demographics, social purpose orientation, sense of globalism and digital fluidity. However, there are other characteristics, like the perception that Millennials are entitled, especially in the workplace, or that Millennials believe there generation will be as successful as their parents' generation that do not fit our Latina Millennial at all. Learn all about the Latina Millennial, what drives her purchase behavior, how she connects with brands, and what makes her the segment to watch.
- The Futures Company: Finding Relevance in Polycultural America
Speakers: Valeria Piaggio, Vice President, Head of Multicultural Insights, The Futures Company
America is at the cusp of a paradigm shift— diversity has reached a tipping point, becoming an inescapable part of the everyday fabric of life and of an individual's identity. This shift is not driven solely by the growing numbers of ethnic consumers, but also by the fact that diversity itself is shaping consumer expectations, needs and lifestyle choices across the entire marketplace. The Futures Company calls this new reality polyculturalism. Polyculturalism marks the Hispanic experience, which is about continuously balancing not two, but many different cultures; and yet Hispanics are a major driver of our nation's polyculturalism. This is why engaging Hispanics today means reaching far beyond this consumer group: it means connecting with Polycultural America. This session will cover cultural intelligence, reveal new cultural orientation models and provide effective approaches in reaching consumers within a polycultural context.
