Intense connection
The ranking of dream brands is based on an open question that investigates which companies creators would most like to work with, and the spontaneous mention of marketplaces signals how much these digital environments have already become part of creators' daily lives.

"If, on one hand, the data is a warning about the effects of hyperconnectivity and the risks to mental health; on the other hand, it serves as a portrait of a modern society that manages its life online. We are talking about people who make professional connections, make purchases, have fun, and build communities - all of this online," analyzes Avellar. "By living intensely in this dynamic, creators end up being good spokespersons for this new form of consumption in marketplaces," he concludes.
