Lenovo Philippines has announced its newest brand ambassador in actress/model/host/beauty queen Megan Young.


The Miss World 2013 continues to roll as the newest face of this global technology brand, with her latest achievement allowing her to flaunt her techie side for the world’s leading PC developer.

With her taking on the new role, Young will be gracing Lenovo events and supporting the company’s campaigns. She will be also giving fans sneak peeks of current and upcoming Lenovo products and devices as well as engaging them with exclusive content. Currently, the actress-beauty queen has 2.4M followers on Instagram and her official Facebook page has 2.1M likes, which she leverages for her Beauty With A Purpose projects and personal advocacies.

“We’re very excited to have Megan Young represent Lenovo this moment in our history when we are solidifying all efforts to maintain our position as the world’s number one PC maker,” said Michael Ngan, Lenovo Philippines Country General Manager. “She embodies Lenovo, with her sophistication, elegance, style, and, more importantly, vibrant personality and flexibility, allowing her to adjust to any situation or role ─ key qualities we are integrating into our consumer devices. With her influence and large social media following, Megan can help bring our products closer to consumers.”

The simple techie and casual gamer

More than just being recognized for her TV and film stints, Young is also closely associated with technology. During the Miss World Philippines 2013 pageant, she revealed that she is a gaming enthusiast. She cited technology as an important part of her lifestyle growing up and until now, with her various commitments.

“I’m what you can call as a simple techie,” said Young. “I may not be as into it as others who research and compare specifications of various products but I approach it as an art and what I look out for the most is performance and programs. I actually grew up being involved with technology. I didn’t go out that much when I was young and I was on my computer instead of playing games. My computer was my outlet when my parents were out working, and during the moments when Dad was home, he even taught me coding in HTML. As a matter of fact, when I won Miss World, my gift to myself was a laptop.”

Being a casual gamer she is, Young usually shares her gaming experience to the public via online streaming. She recently played Stardew Valley, and its streaming video been viewed by at least 57,000 times on Facebook.  Last year, she was able to display her skills in League of Legends by participating in a celebrity showmatch held at Conquerors Manila sponsored by Lenovo and Globe, which she was able to raise P134,000 for charity.

“I’m delighted with my partnership with Lenovo because it will definitely help elevate my streaming experience. I started streaming around February and that was also the time when Lenovo first approached me. The situation is timely for me since I’m starting to really get into PC games,” added Young.

Young have nothing but praises on Lenovo's device, cited its capabilities to combine power, performance, and a premium look and feel into one. Her Legion Y740, for example, fits well at meetings and in coffee shops because of its sleek, business-like look. Another of Young’s favorites is the Yoga S940, with its impressive nearly bezel-free display.

These products are part of Lenovo’s roster of consumer laptops which recently underwent a premium refresh on their designs. Previously bulky and rugged-looking, the latest IdeaPad, Yoga, and Legion laptops are now sleeker, thinner, and lighter.

With Young at the forefront as the official brand ambassador, expect to see more of Lenovo's consumer devices.
