Gen Z will support brands that emphasize inclusivity and sustainability in their company. 
As the upcoming Gen Zers begins to move into higher-paying jobs, businesses will try to grab this new and important generation of consumers. In the same way that Gen Z consumers search for brands that resonate with them, businesses will begin finding shared values with this demographic of consumers and connect with them online.
