Why Virtual TSM?
- What motivates you to join TSM?
I am very interested in starting my own business with the intent of making something that helps people. I am especially interested in technological literacy, especially amongst the elderly and the youth. As someone passionate about technology and coding in nearly all its forms, I want to spread that same passion to others. I would like to learn how businesses, especially startups, manage to market their products to their audiences, and how they try to be more inclusive with their branding. With Seoul being labelled a "City of the Future" - a "Global Innovation Leader" with Seoul residents some of the earliest adopters of new technology in the world, I believe that TSM will provide me with a better understanding of this, and entrepreneurship in general.
- Where would you like to visit?
Seoul: Samsung D’light, T.um - SK Telecom, Kakao
Starting a business
- What types of business interest you?
I am interested in a business that has their audience at heart - one that takes ergonomics and UX design and integrates it into their product.
- What plans do you have in starting a business?
I plan to be able to start a non-profit business (small-time) that helps seniors go digital - either in their day-to-day lives or in their businesses.
