THE LIST

“THE LIST” by YUNG is our annual celebration of the change-makers, pioneers, and visionaries shaping the future of the MEA region and beyond. It’s a curated collection of trailblazers—emerging and established—who are redefining industries and challenging the status quo across cultural, social, and economic spheres.

This isn’t just a feature; it’s a platform for recognizing innovation, influence, and impact. From artistic disruptors to game-changing entrepreneurs, everyone on THE LIST shares a common thread: they’re breaking boundaries and rewriting the narrative, all while living in or rooted in the MEA region.

There are no rankings, no categories, no podiums. We’re not here to box people in—we’re here to celebrate the limitless potential within our communities. Each name represents a story of creativity, grit, and ambition, from Olympic champions to culinary innovators, from musical prodigies to sporting trailblazers.

These are the ones to watch.

This is THE LIST. We are YUNG.
