Why Travel Bubble TSM?

  • What motivates you to join TSM?

Previously in polytechnic, I engaged an active role in YES! Challenge Ciputra at Universitas Ciputra in Indonesia. Through this 2-week incubator program, I was among a class of fortunate students to assist passionate entrepreneurs from Surabaya in starting up their businesses. These businesses are aimed at helping them create a sustainable life and enhance their standard of living. Through this meaningful project, I have witnessed how startups could change lives.

Above all, I am interested in learning more about startups and how to build one! I believe TSM is a safe and conducive environment to immerse myself in the startup scene. With the partnered companies of TSM in previous years, I am confident that my journey in TSM would be a wide eye-opener!

Starting a business

  • What types of business interest you?

Data-solutions businesses are what excites me most. I believe that all entities should continually strive to improve, and a good strategy is to leverage insights from data. One company I am particularly inspired by is Trakomatic.

  • What plan do you have in starting a business?

I do not have any immediate plans to start a business. However, I would be interested in venturing into SAAS in the future.
