| |
| − | * '''What motivates you to join TSM?'''
| |
| − | Setting up a start-up is easy, but what makes a start-up successful and keeps it going require a bit of luck and taking the right move. Excited to have a deeper look into the critical points of startup and businesses through this Virtual TSM and hopefully have my own startup.

| |
| − | Being an avid online shopper, I always strive to get the best value for my money spent. Technology is reshaping consumers' behaviour and spending online - evidently in the China market. That is where value is captured, seizing the opportunity. I cannot wait for the day whereby augmented reality would be used more widely, allowing me to effectively try-on and see the fit and style of the clothes on my body in a more realistic manner and find the right sizes. (GAP's Dresser Room augmented reality technology but new and improved version!)
| |
| − | This would mean that I would no longer have to waste money on buying clothes that do not fit.

| |
| − | Coming from a banking and finance background and having gone through internship in a bank, I feel that still many areas of the banking's operations that can be digitalized. Although it may be costly and cumbersome, I do believe that the benefits will outweigh its costs in the long run. Also, would be keen in seeing how technology can improve a customer's experience by making it more seamless - FinTech.

| − | '''Baking Supplies Website/Instagram''' <br>
| |
| − | Always had been interested in baking since I was in secondary school and finally got back to it thanks to the COVID19 pandemic. Cost is a huge factor when it comes to baking so while sourcing for baking necessities, I was thinking of how I could potentially capitalize on it. However, there were so many online bakeries and it would be hard to differentiate from others.
| |
| − | | |
| − | A thought struck me, "Since everyone is baking, what they would need are the baking supplies."
| |
| − | | |
| − | What I am do is to buy items to check for its quality before buying in small bulk to reselling on Carousell to test the market. As it takes a great deal to source for quality products and low price (keeping my items affordable for my customers), I am still in the midst of expanding my product offering. In this day and age, having an online presence with the proper branding is important. Although it may seemed far-fetched at the moment, what I aim to do is to set up a website to sell these necessities as well as to introduce foolproof baking kits for new bakers. It would be a one-stop for all the needs to start baking from scratch.

| − | Inspiration from Cupcake Jemma on YouTube (which I have been following since I secondary school), seeing them through the start of Youtube channel to opening a bakery and now selling of baking kits. Recently found a Singapore-based Instagram account, @bakestarters, which is similar to the concept that I have mentioned.
