More than one hundred stars from the creative and media Jewish world gathered at the Netflix HQ in London on Wednesday evening to celebrate the Jewish News’ Creative and Media Young Business List. Created in partnership with Dangoor Education, the list showcased ‘60 under 40’ of the community’s top talents making an impact in the creative and media world.
They included dozens of celebrities and social media influencers to journalists, actors and designers.
Among them were content creator Brandon B, actor Emma Kingston and journalist Josh Glancy, who took part in a panel chaired by Jewish News editor Richard Ferrer.
Jewish News business rditor Candice Krieger, who created the list alongside Jewish News news editor Justin Cohen and chair of the list Andrew Gilbert, said: “There really is so much creative and media talent in our community and it felt very special to showcase this in such a positive way.

“What became particularly striking during the process was how the creative and media landscape has developed dramatically.
“While many of us anticipated the rise of those influencing in the social media world, in addition to more traditional industry figures, their prominence on the list has been extraordinary.

“What made this list so unique is that it brought these two worlds together, showcasing – in one place and in a truly rare way – Jewish stars excelling and inspiring in both.
“We are very grateful to Dangoor Education and Netflix for hosting us. I don’t think there could be a more fitting venue to host such a gathering of talent from the creative and media world.”
The Creative and Media List is the first in a series of planned Jewish News‘ Young Business lists. There has since been a Tech and Digital Young Business one with property and financial services underway.
