• 62 percent of consumers seek brands that have ethical values and demonstrate authenticity.
• 52 percent of consumers seek brands that stand for something bigger than just the products and services they sell.
• 50 percent of consumers seek brands that stand up for societal and cultural issues they believe in.
• 50 percent of consumers seek brands that support and act upon causes that consumers care about.
