Geneva, October 24th, 2023 – RED CLUB x Cartier, a global membership community of multicultural entrepreneurs, that aims to positively influence the next generation of conscious leaders is launching the 2024 edition of the Young Leader Award, its annual international award that recognizes socially impactful young initiatives.

Open to emerging social entrepreneurs, aged from 20 to 40 years old, running impact driven businesses or nonprofit organisations, the Young Leader Award aims to support young entrepreneurial leaders to grow their businesses and amplify their voices.

This year’s edition of the Young Leader Award is hosted by the SEAO (Southeast Asia and Oceania) chapter of the RED CLUB x Cartier, whose region has established itself as a prominent hub for entrepreneurship in Asia and around the world.

Given the region’s environmental and social concerns and the increasing role of technology in creating a sustainable future, the 2024 edition of the Young Leader Award, themed “Tech for a Sustainable Future” will shine a light on young technology-driven solutions that are shaping the future of people and planet in a sustainable way for a better world.

“The RED CLUB x Cartier is privileged to support young visionary leaders who connect technology, innovation and sustainability for positive change, driving solutions across sectors, fostering economic progress while improving environmental and social well-being” said Cyrille Vigneron, President & CEO of Cartier SA.

To celebrate the launch of the 2024 edition a dedicated event was held in Singapore from October 22 to 24. Over the course of three days, this event brought together a diverse community of changemakers, ranging from entrepreneurs, academics, and media, who joined forces to support the launch of the 2024 edition of the Young Leader Award, and to empower the next generation to create change, for good.

Applications for the 2024 Young Leader Award will be accepted from October 24, 2023, to January 31, 2024. Eligibility criteria and the online application form are available at the following link: https://apply.redclubcartier.com/submit
