NEXT GENERATION LEADERSHIP
This month, we celebrate the spirit of resilience all around us as our nation seeks to rebuild itself. It is only fitting for our cover personality Vincent Lua to share his very own entrepreneurial journey, a path laden with challenges and failures before he finally reached success with Myeongdong Topokki. Evolving from a typical casual dining restaurant to a fast casual Korean restaurant chain with over 50 outlets nationwide, the young entrepreneur has grand plans for the halal-certified K-food operator to be a leading technology firm in F&B as a major step towards digitalisation. Vincent’s tenacity coupled with his readiness to embrace the revamp mindset has primed him to stay on the course no matter how challenging the journey gets.
We also can’t ignore the fact that in this Covid-19 era, there is a strong narrative that revolves around exemplary female leaders and how women-led nations are faring better in the battle against the pandemic. To usher in the new decade, the Prestige team has kicked things up a notch for our annual, most-anticipated 40 under 40 list by shining the spotlight on fearless women changing the game. Our 40 women to watch hail from different backgrounds – from activists who are lending a voice to the voiceless to science researchers making breakthroughs. Read their stories, be inspired to take action and do your part in making the world a better place.
