Why Virtual TSM?

  • What motivates you to join TSM?

I have always been passionate about coming up with game-changing ideas to make the world a better place with the emergence of technology. Through TSM, I believe that this trip will be an eye-opener for me to broaden my horizon and confidence in innovating new ideas and gaining exposure to the entrepreneurial scene in Silicon Valley which would serve as a good starting point for me to kickstart my entrepreneurial journey. Likewise, I am also deeply excited with the prospect of meeting like-minded individuals to build up on each other’s goal of being an entrepreneur.

  • Where would you like to visit virtually?

Silicon Valley, London, Bengaluru, Shen Zhen

Starting a business

  • What types of business interest you?

Disruptive service providers that capitalise on data. Businesses like Uber and Stashaway that create blue oceans to solve unknown pain points. They are asset light and incredibly agile, enabling them to quickly react and always make themselves relevant and competitive. I'm amazed by these businesses that innovate at breakneck speed, and would like to learn their processes.


  • What plans do you have in starting a business?

I aim to start a consulting businesses that disrupts the current saturated consulting industry. I believe many legacy companies do not have the relevant knowledge to make themselves relevant in our ever-changing world. I hope to be able to implement a new business model that will create more value than the current status-quo.
