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 is the first year Fortune has evaluated and published this list for the Asia-Pacific region, recognizing the world's most powerful and increasingly important economies.
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.
As the first generation of entrepreneurs, having experienced nearly half a century with many ups and downs of the Vietnamese economy, Mai Kieu Lien has made important marks and contributions to the development of the economy in general and the Vietnamese dairy industry in particular, thereby contributing to the development of many generations of Vietnamese children.
