Why Virtual TSM?
- What motivates you to join TSM?
I heard so much about TSM especially because it allows us to expand our horizon to see startups beyond Singapore. TSM has always been on my bucket list, just having the ability to explore the startup scene in Japan will introduce me to what it is like to start a company in Asia and hopefully help me to broaden my network in order. This would help in the future when the business I start grows big enough to branch out into the Asia market.
- Where would you like to visit?
Tokyo: Softbank, Canon, Nexon, Fujitsu, Nomura Research Institude
Starting a business
- What types of business interest you?
The Businesses where people are so passionate about creating a product that really impacts the world. I want to learn how they fuel their passion and hunger to create something that will better the lives of many.
- What plans do you have in starting a business?
I do have some plans especially when it comes to starting a business. For example, I had the plan to start a family tree app, meant to help families track their entire family tree especially if their families are really big. Or even things like a Smart water cooler, and being a christian myself... I did think of using Natural Language Processing to process the bible and trying to get the rough sentiments for the different books in the bible. Hopefully, I do wish to roll out these application onto the App store.
