Social media has long evolved beyond a platform for sharing selfies or keeping tabs on people you know from school: it’s a bonafide business tool for cultivating your image — a powerful form of digital currency, so to speak. It’s not surprising that our Generation T List — a roster of the most promising thought leaders in Hong Kong — are packed with young rising social media stars. We rally up the top names you should be following online.
