This year’s Young Influentials are very much a reflection of their time: tirelessly innovating across everything from AR and AI to data analytics, diversity in the workforce, Gen Z outreach, branded content and even activism. Many of them are also bound by a desire to give back or effect change. Case in point: Crazy Rich Asians star Constance Wu, who appears on our cover, is determined to use her influence to advance the #MeToo movement and challenge Hollywood’s pervasive diversity issues.
