Why Virtual TSM?

  • What motivates you to join TSM?

I am interested in gaining exposure to the entrepreneurship scene and seeing how entrepreneurs turn an idea into a business, better yet being involved/experiencing it myself. TSM is definitely provides such an opportunity and might even open new doors/opportunities to turn ideas into businesses. On top of that, an overseas study mission would further broaden perspectives of the entrepreneurship scene at a global level. Also, South Korea is well-known for tech startups and even have their own equivalent of Silicon Valley, which makes next term's TSM even more appealing. Seniors and friends who have taken this course before also gave very positive reviews despite it being mostly virtual, so now that there is a possibility of travelling there for an actual experience, I am even more excited to join TSM!
