Questions about booking a Gen Z and millennial keynote speaker

What does a Gen Z keynote from Matt Britton cover?

How Gen Z and millennials discover, trust, buy, and work. Matt covers the shift from search to social and AI discovery, the authenticity test brands now face, Gen Z in the workplace, and what Gen Alpha signals next, drawing on his books YouthNation and Generation AI and on Suzy consumer research.

Is this talk relevant beyond marketing teams?

Yes. HR and talent leaders use it to recruit and retain Gen Z employees, product and CX teams use it to design for younger customers, and financial services and real estate firms use it to reach first-time buyers and investors.

How is the data sourced?

From Suzy, the AI-powered consumer intelligence platform Matt founded and chairs, and from the research behind YouthNation (Wiley, 2015) and Generation AI (Wiley, 2025). Matt has studied youth culture since founding the youth marketing agency MRY in 2002.

Can the keynote cover Gen Z and Gen Alpha together?

Yes. A combined session covers Gen Z, millennials, and Generation Alpha, the first generation growing up with AI, and shows how each one changes demand, trust, and talent strategy.

What formats are available?

In-person keynotes of 45 to 75 minutes, virtual keynotes, fireside chats, and half-day workshops, for corporate events, marketing conferences, and Gen Z focused summits.
