"Unilever CEO Fernando Fernandez revealed that the company has scaled its direct creator network from 10,000 to 300,000 in just two years, with roughly half of its digital budget now flowing into social-first, creator-led content."
"Goldman Sachs projects the creator economy will reach $480 billion by 2027, up from roughly $250 billion today, indicating significant growth and investment potential."

Unilever has expanded its creator network significantly, with half of its digital budget now allocated to creator-led content. This shift indicates a transformation of the creator economy from a mere content industry to a viable asset class. Projections suggest the creator economy will grow to $480 billion by 2027. The increase in mergers and acquisitions within this space, including significant deals, further supports this transition. The focus now shifts to identifying which assets will attract institutional investment.
