Two weeks ago, I went to Singapore upon the invitation of luxury brand Cartier. My eyes were ready to be dazzled by fine jewelry, iconic wristwatches from their Panthère collection and, of course, their renowned Love Bracelets. I saw none of these. Instead, I met young entrepreneurs with gems of thought about the world we live in and what they're doing to improve it. Listening to them was a 40-carat experience.
The future is no longer the same as we used to perceive it. So we have to do something within our power to envision and achieve a better life for us all.
This was the spirit of the event presented by Red Club x Cartier, a global community of multicultural entrepreneurs celebrating the Young Leader Award (YLA) winners.
When Cartier was founded by Parisian watchmaker Louis François Cartier in 1847, did he ever imagine that his wristwatches would do more than mark time for decades that followed? More than a century later, Cartier would send an alarm to wake up our consciousness to realities and help fashion our future. To paraphrase a professor at the National University of Singapore: "We have gone through rock 'n' roll. It's time we rocked the minds of people."
Cartier's Singapore event celebrated the 2024 edition of the Young Leader Award, which focused on "Tech for a Sustainable Future." Initiated in 2021, the YLA recognizes and supports entrepreneurs aged 20 to 40 who lead socially impactful businesses.
Entries from 66 countries submitted technology-driven solutions to the current social and environmental problems the world faces.
