Hong Kong is a bustling city, very much similar to Singapore as an economic powerhouse in Asia. It's unique position beside China makes it a desirable country for business operations without the complexities of the Chinese economy, especially as China is rapidly advancing in the technology scene. Hong Kong also has a booming startup culture and great support for technological innovations and research, with infrastructure such as the Hong Kong Science Park. Hong Kong may not be on the top of the list when you talk about a "high tech" country, however, it would be interesting to better understand the entrepreneurship and technology landscape of the country. It would also be insightful to discover how a versatile economy and landscape like Hong Kong thrives under its circumstances and provides support for entrepreneurship.

Why TSM Hong Kong?

  • What motivates you to join TSM?

I personally enjoy travelling and I believe the Study Mission will help develop a different outlook towards travel - one that goes beyond the beautiful sights and physical landscapes of a city. In joining the TSM, I hope to get a better understanding of the entrepreneurial, technological and business landscapes of the country and the way of lives of people living in another part of the world. The study mission is also a unique opportunity to be exposed to and interact with different companies as to what we're used to in Singapore - and to better understand these companies and their motivations first-hand (with company visits). It would provide a great platform for experiential learning, and is an invaluable opportunity I would be honored, if given the opportunity, to experience.

  • Why pick Hong Kong?

Hong Kong is a bustling city, very much similar to Singapore as an economic powerhouse in Asia. It's unique position beside China makes it a desirable country for business operations without the complexities of the Chinese economy, especially as China is rapidly advancing in the technology scene. Hong Kong also has a booming startup culture and great support for technological innovations and research, with infrastructure such as the Hong Kong Science Park. Hong Kong may not be on the top of the list when you talk about a "high tech" country, however, it would be interesting to better understand the entrepreneurship and technology landscape of the country. It would also be insightful to discover how a versatile economy and landscape like Hong Kong thrives under its circumstances and provides support for entrepreneurship.
