Here's Goldman's 4 things we know about millennial parents:

  • They have a unique set of values.
  • They have proven disruptive in many industries.
  • They are more technologically enabled than prior generations were at a similar stage in life.
  • Their popular is growing in size.

And 3 things Goldman thinks we know:

  • Key principles of their value system (the firm has a big slide in its presentation explaining this, and it includes things like "instant gratification," "shareable moments and resources," and "tech-enabled innovation.")
  • They are increasingly open to variety and small (lesser known) brands.
  • They consume and share content differently from other generations.

And the 2 things Goldman says we have no idea about with respect to millennial parents:

  • How their parenting styles - and by extension their decision on education and healthcare - will compare to Gen-X and Boomer parents.
  • How their value system will evolve as they get older and as the economy improves.

As for who Goldman thinks is and isn't a millennial, the first has a handy graphic here:
