Culture-Shaping Viral Moments
From collectible crazes to confectionery frenzies, microtrends move markets, rewire brand strategy, and shape culture in real time. This session unpacks how a microtrend starts, spreads, and sustains, then asks which moments fade and which mature into movements. Through examples like Labubus and “6-7,” we’ll examine the new approval workflows (text-message greenlights over formal reviews), and why agility beats scale. We’ll also share practical blueprints, rapid-response “war rooms” vs. autonomous creator pods for spotting, testing, and monetizing what’s next, plus a forward look at real-time trends to analyze if they are temporary or have longevity to dominate culture.
