Over the next few years, Hispanics will account for 80% of the Millennial population growth, representing 1 in 4 Millennials. They are hyper-connected, 66% more likely to connect via mobile than non-hispanic whites and consuming twice as much content on YouTube. This US Hispanic population's spending power is expected to reach $1.5 trillion in 2015 in the retail and CPG space. Furthermore, it's expected that their influence in upcoming elections will decide the next president. However, with all of this, Hispanics, in particular Hispanic Millennials, remain an elusive and challenging group to reach en masse. We plan on discussing these trends and how to crack the code on reaching this group.
