Why TSM?

  • What motivates you to join TSM?

Other than plain theories and in-class lessons, I feel it's a good opportunity to step into the industries to learn more. With TSM, I believe we will be able to gain exposure to how these successful organizations have in consideration during their startup, which also gives us knowledge and prepares us when we are about/considering to start up a business. Little grips of how they actually transform the gaps between technologies and sales, etc into opportunities, how they manage their business when it starts to grow, and also what are the unseen overheads that have to be taken into consideration when it comes to starting up a business. With limited experience, this is a good opportunity to learn.

  • Where do you NOT want to travel for TSM?

Every place is an opportunity.

Starting a business

  • What types of business interest you?

A business that provides solutions/software that helps to optimize sales and operations. (e.g, Salesforce)

  • What plan do you have in starting a business?

Currently, not at the moment but hopefully in a couple of years time (When the idea kicks in and the right opportunity at the right time). Hoping to learn more experience in the industry, figuring out ways that can help organizations increase their productivity. Might also be looking into the e-sports environment

Past Experiences (optional)

  • List your startup experiences

Not much with startup experiences, Currently, having an internship with an SME, assisting them in building an online presence in the market.

What keeps you ticking?

Fun & easy-going person. Someone who has been learning Information Technology ever since ITE. Yearning for more knowledge and with the fast-paced technology in place, staying relevant is a challenge!
