Introducing Generation Alpha

When it comes to generations, it seems like none of them are ever forgotten. Fans of Gen X and Gen Y may have been surprised to hear about Generation Z, but Generation Alpha is yet the newest label for our young people. Generation Alpha is the generation born from 2010 and onward, so the oldest from this group have just reached the age of 10.

The Way Generation Alpha Grows Up

Generation Alpha is growing up in a time of rapid change and innovation, with technology and the internet that their predecessors may not have even dreamt of. Generation Alpha children are likely to have access to much more complex technology than was available to prior generations, and may become the most educated and well-equipped generation to date. This could lead to a shift in how they engage with the world and the information they are exposed to.

The Digital Savviness of Generation Alpha

As the majority of Generation Alpha grows up surrounded by technology, it is expected that they will be more digitally advanced than prior generations. Generation Alpha will be more aware of how the internet works, more comfortable using technology, and in touch with digital trends. This could lead to a new generation of tech-savvy innovators who are able to use technology to create new applications and services or explore new frontiers. Generation Alpha may also have different values and beliefs than other generations, so understanding their perspective is essential in order to meet their needs and allow them to reach their full potential.

So far, Generation Alpha is still a very young generation. It is yet to be seen how many years this generation will be alive and in what way this generation will shape our future. For now, the world is curious to see what technology, education, and values Generation Alpha will bring to the world.
