Gen Z's Impact on Entrepreneurship | Sol Trickey | Vancouver

All signs point to the possibility that Gen Z may be the most entrepreneurial generation in American history. While Millennials were often touted for their eager pursuit of tech startups, Gen Zers look to be more bullish on business across the board. A Generation Z individual is someone who was born between 1997 and 2015. That comprises 68 million Americans out of a nation of 356 million. Today, a Gen Zer is from eight to 23 years old. A recent Gallup poll of students from grades 5 through 12 found that 40% of them named starting their own business as a post-educational goal. Amazingly, 24% have already started or tried to start a business while still in school. Why is Gen Z so enamored with entrepreneurship? Part of the reason gets back to Millennials who, after all, are their parents. Up until now, it was Millennials who carried the mantel of “the entrepreneurial generation.”
