China Youth Culture Study Provides New Global Insight and Forecasts for New Markets in Fashion, Technology, Entertainment, Sports, Music, New Media, Video Gaming, Lifestyles
Fresh results from Label Networks’ 4th Annual China Youth Culture Study 2009 clearly indicate that the youth culture marketplace of 15-25-year-olds in China has completely re-shaped market trends motivated mostly by new economic conditions and changes in technology and emerging communication patterns resulting in a shift in the last few months in preferences and trends for where they spend their money, adopt fashion, and absorb influences from music, sports, entertainment, new media, marketing + advertising, and more. Results in the China Youth Culture Study 2009, produced by Label Networks, the global leader in youth culture intelligence and media, quantify how vital it is for even the most localized trendsetting brands in America to know what’s taking shape in China. Based on the sheer heft of its size, this marketplace is having a major ripple effect that continues to shape global business strategies--making Chinese youth culture one of the most sought after new markets in the world.
“The Chinese youth market is comprised of an entirely new generation among their 1.3 billion people who have grown up among massive economic reforms resulting in influencing a great deal of the overall spending power of China,” says Tom Wallace, President of Label Networks. “There’s a huge youth demographic that’s adopting new trends and demanding Western brands in mass volume, despite what’s taking shape in the re-organization of the global economy. Young people want exciting advertising, the opportunity to adopt global fashion brands and lifestyles, and they are without the cynicism seen in other youth markets,” explains Wallace.
As the first generation of the one-child rule to have experienced economic reforms, open markets, and capitalism with a Communist twist, the youth market’s developing culture is greatly influenced by Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and Western influences, but is also creating a lifestyle wholly its own. These traits in fashion, spending patterns, technology and communication, music, video gaming, and especially sports, are important trends to understand regarding the dynamics of the future of global youth culture.
