According to Fortune, the Most Powerful Women Asia 2024 list recognizes women redefining leadership by transforming companies, changing the face of industries, driving growth, innovating technology and improving business quality, and inspiring the next generation of leaders.

This list is built on 5 criteria, including: size and development of enterprises; strategic vision, promoting innovation, creating breakthroughs; influence on the business sector and the economy; reputation, and social impact.
This year, the outstanding female leaders and entrepreneurs honored come from 11 countries, including China, India, Japan, Korea, Australia, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Philippines, and Vietnam, spanning many fields such as finance, food and beverage (F&B), energy, transportation, etc.
