I first heard about this module when I took Interaction Design & Prototyping (IDP) as a student of Prof Benjamin Gan <i>(good times!!!)</i>, and he mentioned that students who were interested in understanding the inner workings of technology startups could consider applying for this module. I'm very passionate about how technology and business intersect and impact each other, as evidenced by my pursuit of a double degree, so this module is right up my alley. Moreover, a friend of mine spoke highly about the experience of planning for her trip. | I first heard about this module when I took Interaction Design & Prototyping (IDP) as a student of Prof Benjamin Gan <i>(good times!!!)</i>, and he mentioned that students who were interested in understanding the inner workings of technology startups could consider applying for this module.
