THE TRAILBLAZERS
What does it mean to be a female entrepreneur in Hong Kong? The topic of women in business is one that's widely covered, but we wanted to take a different approach by getting to know the stories of some of the female entrepreneurs who are making their mark in Hong Kong.

Like any entrepreneur, these women are strong-willed, resilient, creative, vulnerable, brave, imperfect, inspiring. It’s no surprise that Hong Kong is a great place to be an entrepreneur. Let’s celebrate it through a different lens. Sit down, relax, discover.
