Why TSM?
What motivates you to join TSM?
Let's be frank, part of the motivation to be in this programme was to fulfill a requirement. But aside from requirement, there is a match in interest that brought me here. So instead, I'll elaborate more on why TSM than just a requirement.
Ever since my inception into the Interwebs, I have been delving into technology and business. From Tech Sales, to starting my own DevHouse for Events company. My line of work has mostly been around starting something of my own and solving problems. Which technology allows me to further pursue this area much more indepth. Hence, I am hoping to achieve my time in SMU to absorb as much collective innovative ideas and thoughts on all sorts of problems. Which explains me being in TSM. :)
Where do you NOT want to travel for TSM?
Anywhere but Singapore. Even though SG is progressive with its infrastructure, it is still often backdated in its implementation as compared to countries that prides themselves in technology.
Starting a business
What types of business interest you?
I am currently running my own Consumer Tech business. Hence, anything consumer and ecommerce tech would be something of interest to me.
What plan do you have in starting a business?
Keeping it alive and growing it.

What keeps you ticking?
Hello, my name is Glenn. I was often asked if I ever tried being in the corporate world than constantly working on projects commissioned by myself? Well, I did. But somehow, somewhere, I always find myself straying to finding problems and making solutions. Of course, not all solutions always work, but hey at least I know what wouldn't work! Do you? ;)
