Generation T is Tatler’s platform for the leaders of tomorrow, and every year it releases Gen.T List, a definitive guide to the young trailblazers shaping Asia’s future. This year, Hong Kong has the highest proportion of female honourees since the list was founded in 2016, at 53 percent, and a striking theme unites four of them: breaking taboos.
These four women each take an innovative, unabashed approach to their work—and draw inspiration from their personal challenges. Megan Lam, the founder of AI-driven company Neurum Health, equips people with personalized daily mental health data, empowering individuals to monitor and treat problems sooner; Anca Griffiths is bringing to light other health concerns through expert-led sessions on sensitive topics such as postpartum healing and menopause; artist Claudia Chanhoi uses humor in her illustrations to share deeper messages about the female body and sexual pleasure; and Olivia Cotes-James, the founder of Luüna Naturals, wants to remove the shame often associated with menstruation through education and access to organic and reusable period care products.
Together they represent a new wave of female-driven businesses working to raise awareness and drive societal changes that benefit all genders. Here are their inspiring stories.
