Gen.T Leaders of Tomorrow by Tatler Kazakhstan
What will Central Asia look like in 2035? The answer to this question is being shaped today through dialogue among leaders, entrepreneurs, experts, and visionaries who are helping define the region’s future.
Alexandra Bekisheva, Chief Executive Officer of KGNT, participated as a speaker at Gen.T Leaders of Tomorrow by Tatler Kazakhstan, part of Tatler Asia’s international platform that brings together a new generation of leaders, innovators, and changemakers.
