81、ay lives.Its estimated that by 2030,there will be a 2%loss in working hours that will impact the global economy by 2.4 trillion U.S.dollars due to climate-related factors such as increasing heat.23This new reality of climate-imposed limits will not only impact human productivity but also impact land
82、,regions,and how we go about sourcing products:regions that are supporting vital agriculture and dense populations today may soon struggle to sustain historical levels of productivity and habitability.For instance,according to Dan Petroski,winemaker at Larkmead,“Cabernet Sauvignon may no longer be r

84、t they will have to change how they carry out some day-to-day activities due to how the climate will change,taking on new habits like gardening in the evening or taking breaks from work in the early afternoon due to the heat.25This will have an impact across many sectors:in travel,entire niche touri

88、solutions,not only to meet emerging consumer expectations,but also to drive business results,mitigate risk,and forge opportunity.In the personal care space,Seppic has developed a biomimetic ingredient called SAGACIOUS,inspired by research of plants in space.Derived from seaweed,it targets all layers

97、this will shift power to the wider community.In an increasingly complex world,brands and organizations are finding power in leveraging experiences built on decentralized platforms to bridge divides by connecting people around shared values and passions,even if their agendas differ elsewhere.This com
98、munity-led and value driven approach is embodied by brands like Diaspora Co.-a spice company working to unravel colonial era trade practices,helping to pay farmers fair wages and get spices into consumer hands more quickly by short circuiting the supply chain.By eliminating several steps of the trad

100、CoalitionsIn a business context,these new perspectives on authority will be reflected in a growing expectation for mutual value creation and empathy.This is reflected in an emerging point of view,especially among younger consumers,when it comes to culture,identity,and the notion of belonging.8 in 10
101、 of global Gen Z and Millennial consumers prefer engaging with entertainment content that reflects their values and the communities they care about,regardless of the country or region in the world where it is being produced.31By embracing micro-communities,brands can foster resonance with minorities
102、 rather than just majority interests.Catering to the long tail allows going beyond just the mainstream middle.An example of this is Mastercard:it has nine Business Resource Groups(BRGs)with as many as 130 chapters across 47 countries to represent diverse communities and their allies.Beyond represent
103、ation,Mastercard is actively investing in its support for communities:it offers benefits like coverage for sex reassignment surgery and surrogacy assistance and equality-driven sponsorships like Girls4Tech,a STEM curriculum for girls aged between 8 and 12.32This approach reflects a growing recogniti

107、2035,Africas megacities will start to emerge and become pivotal cultural and economic hubs.Population growth of Africas 7 largest cities is projected to grow to the megacity mark by 2050.By 2035,there will be more young Africans entering the workforce each year than the rest of the world combined.Th

109、ral,as well as evolving migration and immigration trends.Human-led Creative EconomyAs AI will continue to reshape productivity and the economy,consumers will place a greater premium on human creativity as the essence of innovation.The creative economy is set to grow a sector where human imagination
110、and creativity come first.As mainstream studios across a number of genres and media formats will increasingly deploy generative AI capabilities in the pursuit of velocity and scale in production,consumers will seek authenticity and personability in user-generated content.Recently,Professor of Market
111、ing and best-selling author Scott Galloway noted that in 2023 Mr.Beast,a YouTuber,collected 30%more viewing hours than The Night Agent,the most watched show on Netflix.In this future,brands will need to reconsider their entertainment and celebrity partnership strategies in light of the growing impor
