The breakout success of Singapore’s Adam Khoo achieving millionaire status at a tender age of 26 has more than tugged at the heartstrings of many. At 26, most of us would probably be experiencing the quarter-life crisis of wondering where the open road in life would lead us to after graduation, probably not having the drive, ambition and entrepreneurial spirit that Adam Khoo possessed.

Here at Anue, we value the aforementioned values, alongside with diligence and respect for our clients, as these are the values we believe, which in turn is reflected in our work. Thus, we sought out 3 individuals under 25 who have aimed to make their mark in their respective industry, and have surfaced with admirable success. Anue speaks to these three bright, young stars.

If you don't already know, Ai Weiwei is probably the most (in)famous contemporary Chinese artist. Having dabbled in sculpture, installation, architecture, curating, and photography amongst others, collaborated with Swiss architects Herzog & de Meuron on the Beijing National Stadium for the 2008 Olympics, having his installations showcased at the Venice Biennale are just some of his many accolades. His often politically-charged works reflects his harsh criticisms on the Chinese government, which, naturally, did not sit too well with the latter and even saw his arrest on 3rd April 2011 at the Beijing Capital International Airport.

All that aside, Ai Weiwei may have been the most well-known, but there are others who have made a name for themselves in China and around the world. Here are some of our top picks.

It’s a rare occurrence for Janie Cai and Jeri Chua to take time off their extremely packed schedules for an interview. But when they do, it’s because they are sisters, and that dynamic of siblings working in the same fashion/publishing industry only serves to strengthen the importance of their interview/photo shoot here at Anue Studios. Janie looked the part of the Esquire Singapore chief decked out in a suave, blue checked suit, while Jeri’s floral ensemble reflects her sophisticated taste as the Group Fashion Director of Indochina Media. They may be doyennes in Singapore’s fashion/publishing industry, but any sense of intimidation thought to be felt in their presence nary exists. There’s a sense of light-heartedness and fun regardless of whoever works with them, and I certainly felt that as I chatted with the sisters about their careers, creative collaboration and their carefree parents.
