Women Leader Forums 2025 was more than just a platform to honor women; it marked a milestone in redefining the role of women in shaping social value. There, beauty was no longer a destination but the starting point for a generation of leaders guided by intelligence, inner strength, and commanding presence.
Where new values of feminine leadership are born
Held in the luxurious setting of The Reverie Saigon on the evening of May 29, 2025, Women Leader Forums 2025 and the Gala Dinner “Timeless Beauty” were more than just events honoring outstanding women leaders—they were an emotional space where beauty and grace stood side by side as two perfectly complementary languages. Nearly 200 female entrepreneurs, leaders, and international guests gathered to create a night of celebration—where women were recognized not only for their appearance but for the values they have built and continue to create for the community.
Led by Dr. Nguyen Thu Huong – Chairwoman of WLIN Global Holdings and CEO of Nam Huong Media Group – this event carried aspirations far beyond a typical awards ceremony. In her speech, she affirmed: “Vietnamese women today are not only the keepers of the family flame but also a driving force creating new values for the nation’s economy, society, and culture.” The compelling numbers—over 50% of the population and nearly 24% of enterprises led by women—demonstrate the maturity in mindset, skills, and status of modern women.
Global discussion on femininity in the era of transformation
The space of Women Leader Forums 2025 was designed not only to honor but also to foster dialogue. The panel discussion, “Women Leaders Shining Globally – Finding Opportunities Within Challenges”, became an intellectual highlight, where women carried genuine stories, real journeys, and authentic inspiration.
Here, female leaders who started quietly, faced personal and societal crises, shared how they transformed adversity into foundations for growth. They did not recount victories as destinations, but as winding paths marked by perseverance and unwavering faith in the values they pursue. These stories inspired deeply and painted a new portrait of leadership: no longer hard power, but soft power built on steadfastness and sustainable thinking.
Beyond emotions, the dialogue opened practical approaches: how women leaders can adapt in a fast-changing era, seize opportunities amid crises, and maintain the core of their personal values within the flow of globalization.
Stage of celebration: When beauty is enlightened by inner power
The atmosphere of the event burst with emotion as the introduction of the 2025 Pioneer Women Leaders nominees officially began with the fashion show of the high-end cultured diamond collection called “Timeless Beauty” by the brand NOBLECO. But what made it special was not the sparkling material, but the people wearing the designs: true leaders.
From Mrs. International Vuong Ngoc Loan, runner-up Bang Chau to director Mai Thu Huyen, designer Dr. Quynh Paris, entrepreneur Nguyen Thu Nga, Maria Truc Tran, Pham Nguyet Nga, Le Vinh, and Katy Nguyen, each appeared not as a model but as a living symbol. Every step on the runway was a convergence of experience, passion, and courage. Every glance was an affirmation that true beauty is born from the journey of life – not to be admired, but to light the way for others.
The journey continues when beauty becomes a mutual legacy
Women Leader Forums 2025 did not end with applause, but with a silent yet powerful message: beauty and leadership are no longer two separate concepts. In a society craving sustainable role models, it is women—with their inner strength, charisma, and awareness—who are becoming the building blocks of transformation.
Organized by Business Style Magazine together with WLIN Global and Nam Huong Media & Event, this event was a highlight in the journey to find the Top 100 International Business Style Leaders 2025. But more than that, it marked the birth of a new generation of leaders—those who are not only successful but also nurture their communities, ignite passion in the next generation, and reshape the map of women’s values in the new era.
