“There’s an expression, ‘Blame it on the youth.’ But Maarten presents everything decision- makers need to understand to engage the next generation effectively and empathetically. Otherwise, you can’t blame it on them...” - Brian Solis, Futurist and Best-Selling Author

"Maarten Leyts is both a scholar and an advocate of how kids reshape the narrative for what becomes adopted, rejected and ultimately mainstream."
- Katryna Dow, CEO and Founder of Meeco

"Children are the future. So to understand our youth, is to understand our future. Even more so, as children born today will live to be 104. How will they look back at the age of 30? Maarten is passionate about and deeply invested in youth culture. His book teaches you everything you need to know about next gen and hence tomorrow."
