The annual Award Ceremony, held in New York, celebrated the achievements of Dr. Bakshi and her revolutionary clinical platform that utilizes artificial intelligence to identify patients at the earliest and most curable stage of cancer.

The Young Leader Award was established in 2021 with the aim of providing young entrepreneurial leaders with the support they need to grow their businesses and amplify their voices. This international award is bestowed upon young entrepreneurs, aged between 20 and 40, who run impact-driven businesses or non-profit organizations as founders or owners, and hold executive positions within them.

The theme of this year’s edition, “Bettering Lives,” highlighted the exceptional endeavors of young entrepreneurs who are dedicated to supporting and empowering under-represented communities by offering more accessible, inclusive, and effective healthcare solutions. Their inspiring work paves the way for a better world, ensuring a brighter future for generations to come.

Out of the 280 registrations received from 33 countries, four exceptional finalists were selected in April. These young entrepreneurs shared a common conviction—to make waves in the business world and create concrete impacts that drive meaningful change.

The 2023 Young Leader Award Ceremony, hosted by the North America chapter of RED CLUB x Cartier, commenced on June 14, 2023, with much excitement and anticipation.

Vigneron reaffirmed Cartier’s commitment to supporting and amplifying the efforts of young impact entrepreneurs, encouraging them to continue their quest for a more equitable world.

The ceremony also included conversations with Giada Zhang, CEO and Co-founder of Mulan Group and President of RED CLUB x Cartier, as well as Anthony Wilbon, Dean of Howard University School of Business, and Jeff Reid, Director of Georgetown University Entrepreneurship Initiative. These esteemed academic partners of the 2023 Young Leader Award highlighted the social and environmental impact that the next generation of conscious leaders seeks to achieve. They emphasized the importance of providing guidance and support to shape a better future together.

The grand finale of the event was the announcement of the winner of the 2023 Young Leader Award—Dr. Bea Bakshi. Her groundbreaking work through C the Signs has revolutionized cancer detection and prevention. As the winner, Dr. Bakshi will receive €50,000 in grant money, international exposure, media visibility, and a tailor-made mentorship program provided by the academic partners, Georgetown University and Howard University, as well as coaching and mentoring sessions facilitated by the RED CLUB x Cartier networks.

Each of them will receive €10,000 in grant money and will continue their journey within the RED CLUB Community, joining the extended “Friends and Family” circle.
