Why TSM?
- What motivates you to join TSM?
The elders always said that it is no good to be a frog in the well! I think it is imperative to learn and understand the world around us as we head into the workforce. It would be a fantastic opportunity to join this year's TSM as I can learn more about Japan's culture as well as its work environment, the technology that surrounds them, and how businesses can thrive there. Furthermore, it is not just an opportune study mission as I look forward to meeting more people and having a great time with everyone!
- Where would you like to visit?
Tokyo: Akihabara, Ghibli, Disneyland, Tokyo Institute of Technology, Shinjuku Park, Miraikan (The National Museum of Emerging Science & Innovation)
Starting a business
- What types of business interest you?
Media businesses with innovative analytics and animations interest me because Japan's culture deeply involves animation and has made it very popular. I also have an interest in gaming businesses as the industry for it is competitive and many factors have to be considered for a start-up game to be a successful one!
- What plans do you have in starting a business?
Currently, I have no plans to start a business yet as I have not come up with a viable idea. However, I am interested in exploring more hobbies as well as investing time into more side projects! (such as designing websites, telegram bots or a simple mobile game app for my friends!)
