Beyond the figures…
New connection moment approach
* ComeScore Media Metrix 2015
For years, marketers have fought hard to
own the 5pm Golden Hour BUT
For Millennials, the traditional 9 - to - 5 no longer exists.
Rather small bursts of leisure intermittently throughout the
day, especially with their smartphones = « micro
leisures ».
From golden hour to micro leisure

visual world.

The power of fun and instantaneity
Snapchat, the funniest social network
The social network is acclaimed by Millenials and GenEdge : they share glimpses of their daily lives with a
limited circle of close friends (they have less friends on the app than on Facebook) and they spend a lot of
