Why Travel Bubble TSM?

  • What motivates you to join TSM?

I was previously working at a start-up in Vietnam & I would say that this experience was such a huge eye-opener. From my short time there, I've observed that everyone takes ownership of their own work, and every small thing you do has a significant impact as well. What really inspired me the most was the amount of passion that everyone puts in their work. As a result, I am really eager to venture and learn more about the different start-up scenes!

I feel that TSM would be a fantastic opportunity for me to learn about the different organizational strategies and the different ways to drive innovation among smaller businesses!

  • If you have a city you do not want to travel, please indicate in this section.
