THE STANDARD 100 PEOPLE SHAPING LONDON
The London Standard|October 31, 2024
Our capital is the greatest city on planet Earth. And, thanks to these people, it's going to stay that way
THE STANDARD 100 PEOPLE SHAPING LONDON

The Standard 100 is a list of the top 100 people shaping the capital in 2024: a celebratory feature of the key power players across the arts, politics, media, sport, charity and much more. From global megastars selling out shows in the West End and restaurateurs who make London's food scene the greatest in the world, to those feeding the city's most vulnerable communities and fighting knife crime, this is a holistic and expansive list representing the rich tapestry that defines our great city.

Here, you'll find iconic Londoners Kate Moss and Sir Ian McKellen; computer scientists leading the AI revolution; campaigners fighting for justice; theatre producers who can make or break careers; and the people who pull the strings behind the scenes. This is not a list only of the biggest and most obvious names. Rather, it looks more closely at the movers and shakers: the cult status-holders about to make it big, or those quietly nabbing three Michelin stars, or even those turning the art of the interview on its head.

The youngest entries on our list are 22-year-old tennis star Jack Draper and 24-year-old Olaolu Slawn, the BritishNigerian artist and king of spray painting, who last year became the youngest person to design the Britannia statuette for the annual Brit awards. The oldest entry on our list is the inimitable Sir David Attenborough, the natural scientist and voice of BBC nature programs, who continues to shape the global conversation around climate change.

Curated by The London Standard's editorial team, the Standard 100 is the first special feature to run under the publication's new title and takes after the long-standing Progress 1000 list, which ranked London's most influential people and ran in the Evening Standard until 2019.
