Why Virtual TSM?
- What motivates you to join TSM?
It has always been one of my dreams to visit Silicon Valley and get a glimpse of how things are done by some of the frontrunners in the tech space. Additionally, as a tech student and having taken a module on entrepreneurship before, I feel that TSM would be a great way to conduct experiential learning by engaging and reflecting on the experience. Through TSM, I am interested to learn more about how entrepreneurs start their own venture and gain a better understanding of what it takes to run a start-up well.
- Where would you like to visit?
Silicon Valley: Apple, Google, Meta, Netflix
Starting a business
- What types of business interest you?
Any business in the field of technology that improves and changes the way we do things.
- What plans do you have in starting a business?
Currently nothing concrete yet. However, I have some rough ideas in the field of FinTech and Education that I still need to discuss and explore in greater detail.
