About Myself
SMU email: reyna.yeo.2020@scis.smu.edu.sg
Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/reyyeo/
Academic Year: Year 4 (2024)
Degree: BSc Information Systems (Major in Digitalisation and Cloud Solutions & Fintech)
- What motivates you to join TSM?
I really enjoy exploring new ideas and finding innovative ways to challenging problems. My passion is entrepreneurship and hopefully through TSM, I am able to gain insights from industry experts from these established brands. Since Japan is known for its creative prowess, the trip there offers me the chance to immerse myself in a different culture and obtain first-hand experience when visiting the businesses there.
- Where would you like to visit?
Tokyo: Nintendo, Asahi, Ghibli Museum, Akihabara, Toyota
Starting a business
- What types of business interest you?
I am interested in businesses where innovation and creativity are at the forefront as I believe that creativity will take you a long way and help you stay ahead of competitors.
- What plans do you have in starting a business?
I aim to partner with a few undergraduates from NUS to start a digital business to serve pre-uni students. We are planning to bootstrap since we have the human resources necessary to self-build the platform. In a previous round of the SMU BIG program, I also led my team in pitching the business idea I had developed to industry experts. Unfortunately, my team was not chosen in the final round and we learnt that our value proposition was weak and that similar business models like Gobble and Groupon had not been successful. Despite this, I still hope to launch my own company in the near future, but after acquiring more industry experience first.
