Megatrend fragmentation: future prospects for 2030

Short Report - Living, working and mobility in a fragmented society

„Zukunftsperspektiven 2030“ (2022)

Our society is becoming increasingly fragmented: values and lifestyles are differentiating, linear projections of the future no longer work. That's why we won't all be working from home, eating vegan food and driving electric cars in the future! For brands, this means that in order to remain relevant, they need to counter the megatrend of fragmentation.

Future Perspectives 2030 shows you how people in Germany will live, work and get around in the future.

In our short report, we present three future perspectives that will help you to review your target group concepts and shape the brand success of tomorrow. The report is dedicated to one of five megatrends from the major GIM foresight baseline study "Values&Visions 2030".

For whom are the insights interesting?

The report is aimed at companies and organisations that are looking for insights into future social developments and their impact on living, working and mobility - and want to adapt their strategies accordingly.
