This year marks the 15th anniversary of this annual celebration. We are honouring inspiring women from industries, such as Arts & Media; Sports, Health & Wellness; Finance & Commerce; Science & Technology; Education & Public Service; and Design & Style. We are also recognising three alumni who have forged their legacy by continuing to make significant strides and accomplishments in their field. Join us to celebrate all these trailblazers and game-changers.
ARTS & MEDIA
Alecia Neo
34, Founder of Brack and Unseen Art Initiative
Art is a window into issues like poverty, disability, marginalisation and social inequality, as well as a platform to continue the conversation – and it is through this pair of lens that Alecia approaches her craft. Alecia is the founder and artist lead of Brack, a trans-border arts platform for socially engaged artists. She is also the founder and director of Unseen Art, a non-profit arts company that aims to evoke and harness the creative potential of people through the arts. Working primarily with photography, video, installation and participatory workshops, Alecia’s artistic practice focuses on longterm projects involving a variety of individuals and collaborators, overlooked communities and their spaces. “Our focus lies in the concept of radical hospitality, to understand the fundamental elements of mutual respect and equal status that underlie practices of hospitality and how communities draw boundaries and connect with outsiders.”
Emily Hoe
46, Executive Director at Singapore International Film Festival
