As sustainability becomes an increasingly critical focus for companies, it’s not just products, operations, and supply chains that are under scrutiny – digital platforms, including websites, are also in the spotlight.

For brands, a solid social media presence is essential to winning over the next generation of consumers. But is this shift here to stay, or will Gen Z eventually return to Google when they outgrow their TikTok phase?
