JUV was founded in 2016 by teenagers with this idea of what the world could look like if more diverse young people had a seat at the table. And today, we are thrilled to take our seat at one of the most impactful tables in the world – by announcing that United Talent Agency (UTA) has acquired JUV Consulting, forming UTA Entertainment Marketing’s Next Gen practice, under the leadership of Julian Jacobs and David Anderson. This partnership is a phenomenal fit as UTA shares our conviction in the capacity for creators, content, and community to shape culture. We are excited to bring our perspective to a company that is at the epicenter of creative innovation, creating unprecedented capabilities that marry our Gen Z services with their unrivaled access to the zeitgeist. UTA Entertainment and Culture Marketing has reimagined what brand storytelling looks like and we cannot wait to add to that story with fresh insight, impact, and inspiration. We are bringing over the majority of our full-time team and will continue to leverage our Gen Z network for our clients. It was tremendously important to us as we navigated this process to arrive at an outcome that benefited our community as much as possible and we are really proud to have found a conclusion that does just that. We will also be ensuring our partners continue to receive the same quality of service from us, which will only be enriched by UTA’s forward-thinking platform. We are also, of course, carrying forward our big plans for ZCON, our thought leadership, and our vision for what phygital-first, community-first, culture-first marketing looks like in 2024. If you work with JUV in any way, you should have already received communications from us – but if you have any questions whatsoever, you can reach out to [email protected] with anything. You can also certainly message Ziad Ahmed, Shaina Zafar, or Maia Ervin directly via LinkedIn! We could have never imagined eight years ago where this journey would take us, but this rollercoaster has only been made possible by the tremendous kindness that folks have shown us along the way (many of whom have done so via LinkedIn!). We owe infinite thanks to everyone who has ever believed in us – even in moments where we didn’t always believe in ourselves. We are overwhelmed with gratitude to every person who has ever worked for, worked with, or worked alongside us. We have, collectively, earned our seats at tables we didn’t even know existed. We have proven what we are capable of – and we are still only just getting started. Read about the full story here: https://lnkd.in/eMXcmdhk

Love is in the air… and this is our love letter to New York! Episode 2 of The Screenshot Podcast is live with Maryam Banikarim 🗽🚕 ❤️ Banikarim, 5x CMO and seasoned community builder. She helped with the launch of the “We Love NYC” campaign which created an flurry of social media buzz and impressions in NY and beyond and she co-founded NYCNext, a community of New Yorkers working together to create a more equitable and joyful city for everyone with localized events that bring people together. Listen to the episode here https://lnkd.in/eRRT_AM3 or watch online here: https://lnkd.in/eDmHkYEB As a New Yorker, she touches on her deep love for the city that never sleeps as well as her Iranian heritage. We chat about her favorite Persian dishes, love of trying new things, the Longest Table(s), what intergenerational dialogue looks like in the 21st century, and what it was like to give her first ever TED talk. We also teach her a word or two to share with her Gen Z son and daughter—is that cheugy?? Maryam speaks to the power of community not only in our everyday life—neighbors, friends, peers—but also what it means to be a marketer that understands purpose and community for brands and shares how her experiences have shaped the work that she has done before and hopes to do in the future. #genz #podcast #marketing #genzmarketing #intergenerationaldialogue #intergenerational #CMO #newyork

It’s 2024 and JUV just launched The Screenshot Podcast, inspired by our Screenshot newsletter of weekly Gen Z trends! Our very first episode features Brand Genius and bestie, Soyoung Kang, CMO of eos Products. In conversation with our CMO, Shaina Zafar, Soyoung taught us how the eos brand has taken brand risks, what her leadership style is, how Gen Z is taking care of their cooch, and what her favorite karaoke song is (hint… Ready For It?). Listen to the podcast episode here: https://lnkd.in/e5adDxFN or watch it here: https://lnkd.in/edVEbQtc The Screenshot Podcast is the place where Gen Zers and non Gen Zers can overshare and indulge with no judgment in true *intergenerational dialogue.* We are bringing brand & industry thought leaders/CMOs/CEOs into the room with our Gen Z host to understand the differences and similarities across generational cohorts. What are your kids watching on TikTok? Is Gen Z lazy? Are Boomers to blame for climate change? This is a place for us to lean into the intergenerational tensions that we feel while seeing the fine lines that tie Gen Zers and non Gen Zers together and Soyoung shows us what we can learn from her and what Gen Z has taught her. #genz #podcast #marketing #genzmarketing #intergenerationaldialogue #intergenerational #CMO

We are endlessly inspired by young activists who continue to lead the way – leaders like Aditi Mayer, who spoke at #ZCON, and who is a phenomenal storyteller who worked with Coach to bring this important video to life. Community is our favorite word at JUV and it’s an honor to create with humans we love! Through our work in creating the Gen Z community that powers Coachtopia, magic was made in connecting sustainable fashion advocate Aditi Mayer & the folks behind Coachtopia. You can see this partnership in action in the first installment of Coachtopia’s docuseries, “The Road to Circularity”. Here, Aditi and all of us are able to get a radically transparent look into the circular process of creating Coachtopia’s products and meet the people and partners helping to pioneer new ways to transform waste into beautiful things. #roadtocircularity #circularfashion Click here to watch - https://lnkd.in/gFn4JeZ6

Brands are gearing up to draw in Gen Z using AI technology. While we know Gen Z is picking up new AI technologies faster than previous generations, how obsessed is Gen Z actually with AI? We asked The Receipt, JUV’s network of 9,000+ Gen Zers, how they feel about AI and how they actually want to use it. https://lnkd.in/gMQEZzfT

You cannot push boundaries, break barriers or push culture forward without the buy in and support from Gen Z. Without Gen Z on your side, you run the risk of creating a one dimensional future. Which is why we teamed up with Marketers That Matter®, a leading community of marketers created by the legendary Nadine Dietz, to help industry leaders understand how to best support Gen Z so they can best support you. And, we couldn’t be more thrilled to have done this in partnership with Andréa Mallard, Charisse Hughes, Chris Brandt, Craig Brommers, David Tai Bornoff, Gene Paek, Kory Marchisotto, Lauren Gallo-Rodriguez, Melissa Grady Dias, Taj Alavi (she/her), Todd Kaplan, Vineet Mehra, Rachel Delphin, Steven Tristan Young, Dylan Gambardella, Nadine Dietz, Heide Palermo, and Lisa Carnegis.

Last night, our CEO, Ziad Ahmed and our Senior Director of Influencer Marketing, Arianna Williams proudly accepted on behalf of JUV Consulting, the Shorty Impact Awards for Diverse-Owned Businesses Campaign for our work on the #AdaptedForMe Campaign. JUV and JanSport, a VF Company teamed up for the #AdaptedForMe campaign to launch their new Adaptive packs and build relationships with a community that has been underserved when it comes to versatility and adaptability for carry solutions. Too often are the experiences of young person’s with disabilities overlooked, undervalued, and dismissed. It is our responsibility to write a future filled with accessibility, understanding, learning, and compassion in order to empower this community to take pride in their uniqueness. When JUV Consulting was created in 2016, we set out with a simple mission — to work alongside brands to create purpose driven marketing that made young people feel seen. As young people ourselves, we understood the dire need for meaningful representation across race, gender, sexual orientation, body diversity, etc. Everyday that we as a company continue with this mission is a day well spent. We recognize the greatness of our work no matter how big or how small. We dedicate this award to the countless Gen Z’ers who have been told that they are too different, that their ideas are too bold or dreams too big. Thank you so much to our besties at JanSport, Brandon Vance 🏳️🌈, Anisah Parks, and Alexandra Smith for believing in our work and our community. Thank you to our lovely content creators who were the heart and soul of this campaign, @immarollwithit, @jomarie_lawrence, @howimetyourhannah, @happilycharisma, @roll.with.cole, @dizzily.noa, @brodyusa4 @menecisss_cx, & @spencer2thewest. Thank you to the Shorty Awards for empowering young people to keep working towards a more diverse future and thank you to every single Gen Z-er for daring to dream big.
