Tatler Gen.T, the platform spotlighting Asia’s emerging leaders, today announces the launch of Gen.T Leaders of Tomorrow 2025, recognising over 200 of the most inspiring talents across nine markets in Asia. From AI entrepreneurs and social impact advocates to trailblazing creatives, this year’s honourees reflect bold ideas and future-shaping leadership in the region.
Selected through a rigorous industry nomination and editorial selection process, the Gen.T Leaders of Tomorrow honours individuals redefining success and leadership across today’s world.
“Over the past decade, the Gen.T Leaders of Tomorrow, and the landscape around it, has evolved in ways we couldn’t have predicted, but in others, exactly as expected. It’s become a barometer of what leadership looks like in Asia today.” said Chong Seow Wei, regional senior editor of Tatler Gen.T. “What stands out most is the maturity of this cohort. Many have moved beyond Series A and are building sustainable, purpose-driven ventures beyond early-stage hype. We’re proud to provide them with a platform to amplify their impact and connect with a wider ecosystem of changemakers.”
Marking a decade of championing next-generation talent, Gen.T introduces Vietnam to the list for the first time and welcomes back Indonesia after a year’s hiatus, reflecting the brand’s continued expansion across the region. The Gen.T community now spans Singapore, Hong Kong, mainland China, Malaysia, Philippines, Indonesia, Thailand, Taiwan and Vietnam, featuring honourees across 20 industry categories, including technology, healthcare, wellness, finance, the arts and sustainability.

What It Means to Be a Tatler Gen.T Leader of Tomorrow
Being recognised as a Tatler Gen.T Leader of Tomorrow is a badge of honour, representing a significant milestone in a leader’s journey to make a meaningful impact. Beyond the recognition, it marks the beginning of a long-term relationship with Tatler and its strong network across Asia.
Many of the honourees are spotlighted and supported before they become widely recognised global leaders, highlighting Tatler Gen.T’s track record of detecting breakout talent early and catalysing their growth.
Through our platform, Leaders of Tomorrow gain access to an exclusive community of like-minded changemakers to connect, collaborate and scale their impact. They also benefit from regional media exposure, ongoing support and connections through Tatler Asia’s curated networking events, targeted brand partnerships and community activations, creating a dynamic ecosystem that unlocks new opportunities for visibility and long-term growth.
The list launch kicks off a multi-city celebration, with dedicated Gen.T Leaders of Tomorrow launch events taking place in each market. These invite-only gatherings will celebrate local honourees and bring them together with industry leaders, investors and partners to foster meaningful connections and collaborations.
