Why TSM Silicon Valley?

I see this TSM as a very good opportunity to get to know more about running a successful start-up. Technology are the drivers for business and will eventually determine the success of the business in this tech savvy economy. Widely known as the home to tech giants, the knowledge to be shared in Silicon Valley cannot be more important than ever.

It will be beneficial for aspiring entrepreneurs as they can experience first hand information on the success and operations of technology companies. Of course not forgetting the arrays of start-ups, they will provide us with more in-depth accounts of their company's road to success. The information gained during our time with them will certainly aid in our future decision making with regards to not only successfully building a start-up but sustaining one.

Internship Opportunities

Interested in internships awesome companies that can cover or touch on the scope of Game Design/Analytics, Business Solutions and Social Media.

apple Inc

Always engaged in research & development. A company that constantly develops products based on fresh ideas. This strong emphasis on continuous innovation is the key to sustaining its market share and business. Given a chance to visit Apple, one can look forward to a flexible corporate culture and embracing the spirit of innovation.

Google Inc

Most IT students will dream of working for Google. A place where creative ideas are sought for and developed. We will be able to gain an insight on the importance of product diversification. The spirit of actively creating more products and solutions to suit to its consumer base is something worth learning for aspiring entrepreneurs.

EA Inc

One of the big players in the gaming industry. I am always interested in the development and design for games. Given a chance to work at Electronic Arts Inc will certainly put one's creativity juices to the test. This hopefully can bring my interest in games to a new level.

Starting a business

  • E Commerce
  • Game Design
  • IT Solutions

I am looking for an opportunity to provide everyday solutions to make life simpler and more convenient. This idea will most likely be focused on mobile applications as I see this as the fastest way for businesses to reach out to its consumer base. It will be truly useful if we can really make use of the technologies that are currently available to solve everyday problems. E Commerce is another area I wish I can build on since Singapore's consumer market is growing steadily. With lives getting more hectic, the convenience brought to consumers by E Commerce cannot be underestimated. Simple Solutions are enough as long as they can make a great impact to the lives of people.

Past Experiences

I was grateful that I had the opportunity to help out my friend's newly started tuition center sometime back. This company aims to provide tuition services to foreigners who foresee themselves not being able to adapt to the education curriculum in Singapore. Due to limited funding and a relatively small targeted market, much effort is required to grow and sustain its consumer base. With the help of its existing data, we are able to formulate better marketing strategies and reinforce its current business development plans. Although its simple data analysis, it provides the company with another viable approach of doing business which they can eventually reap the benefits. This personal experience shows me the difficulties that a start-up faced and how it can expand in a effective way although its resources are limited.
