In partnership with the Hong Kong Adventist Hospital Foundation, Hong Kong Tatler is recognizing some of the city’s most inspirational women. From the medicine to the environment, the nominees for the Women of Hope awards have all truly dedicated themselves to making a difference.

One category for the nominees is “Entrepreneur,” recognizing those women who have taken their great ideas and turned them into real businesses. The nominees for this category are Ann Cha & Angela Cheng Matsuzawa, Charlotte Chen, Cheryl Wilson, and Michelle Sun & Karen Farzam.
