Those born in this generation, also known as the global generation, were born in an environment where technology and the internet were used and adopted in every field compared to previous generations. They see many opportunities that previous generations saw as luxuries or difficult to reach as basic needs. Because for them, smartphones and tablets are a normal part of their lives.
