* What plans do you have in starting a business?
I do not have plans to start a business as of now because I feel that before starting a business, it is very important to have good judgement when making decisions and this will require a few years of working experience in the field first. This entails knowing what industry to venture in and how to make good financial choices. It also requires taking a leap of faith and trust in myself. Hence, through my TSM experience, I wish to be able to learn more about entrepreneurship and help me take that leap of faith and also learn how to start my own tech company.

Why Virtual TSM?

  • What motivates you to join TSM?

TSM provides a great opportunity to learn about the startup scene abroad, especially in Silicon Valley where there are many startup communities and a strong entrepreneurial ecosystem. Through this experience, I wish to learn more about the experiences and motivations of startup founders, and also connect with fellow like-minded peers who share similar interests in the startup scene. Additionally, being in my final semester, I believe TSM will also help me gain more exposure into the startup scene before I step into the workforce.
