The new inductees to the Generation T List were honoured at an exclusive dinner at The Murray, hosted by Hong Kong Tatler. The dinner—supported by H. Moser and Theory—saw the entrepreneurs, creatives and innovators on this year’s Generation T List 2018 joined by members of the Tatler Tribe, the panel of industry heavyweights who nominate names for the list. Hong Kong leaders on the Tribe this year include Kent Ho, Emily Lam-Ho, Esther Ma, Peter Cheung, Joyce Tam and Vicky Cheng.
John Wood, founder of educational charity Room to Read, gave an impassioned speech on the importance of building social purpose into business, and Hong Kong Tatler chief content officer and managing director Sean Fitzpatrick announced that Generation T would be sponsoring 50 children to learn to read and write for a year through Room to Read’s programme—one for every 2018 Generation T lister.
