Starting a business

  • What types of businesses interest you?

Ecommerce, Supply Chain, App Development, IoT

  • What plan do you have in starting a business?

Together with a group of 4 other members, I have applied for an Entrepreneurship Practicum with a business proposal to digitalize name cards. We are still in the process of awaiting our proposal approval and hopefully embark on the first phase of our business plan with the funds that we are sponsored with.

Past Experiences (optional)

  • Promoter at Cathay Pacific

I previously had a job attachment with Cathay Pacific to promote Asia Miles, their frequent flyer programme to passengers by explaining the rewards and sign-up procedure, using different languages, English, Mandarin and Cantonese. Duing the process, I developed interpersonal skills by approaching different kinds of passengers at the Cathay Pacific check-in counter, generating 88 sign-ups for Asia Miles in a week. It was truly a refreshing experience!

  • Talks on Technology

I enjoy attending talks about the applications of technology in businesses. One of the talks I attended in SMU was the 7th Annual SKBI Conference. This conference gathered well-established industry practitioners, start-ups, regulators, and academic researchers, such as OCBC, Grab, DBS, Singtel, just to name a few. I also networked with some Professors from SIS. They shared their diverse experiences on how to embrace, respond to, and adopt changes related to large data while simultaneously facing the challenge of coping with rapidly changing analytic requirements.

What keeps you ticking?

  • Life Motto: Passion, Persevere, Prevail.

As long as we are passionate in whatever we do, we will achieve our purpose because we are willing and enthusiastic to put in our efforts. However, at times, we may be faced with setbacks and challenges. We must remember our passion and persevere till the end. Our grit and determination will have a chance to be paid of one day! Hence, with passion and perseverance, we will prevail!
