- What plan do you have in starting a business?
Back in 2019, I tried to start a social enterprise with one of my friends, to help the disadvantaged elderly through art. We pitched at events such as NVPC's A Good Pitch! and participated in the Young Social Entrepreneurs Programme. Through these events, meeting a few potential partners, and interviewing potential stakeholders, we learnt that our idea was not feasible, and decided to conclude that.
Now, I don't have concrete plans, but thinking of something like a keyboard business.
