Why TSM?
- What motivates you to join TSM?
"You can't have a million dollar dream with a minimum wage worth ethic" I believe this TSM has the potential to help kickstart my journey to being the next Mark Zuckerberg! In all seriousness, I'm a firm believer of the agile, independent and collaborative approach in startups, and this TSM is a great starting point to be exposed to the startup culture. Additionally, I have always been intrigued by Japan's strong culture in the entertainment scene, and a trip to Japan can help broaden my horizon while enriching the time spent with my university friends!
- Where would you like to visit?
Ghibli, Akihabara, Ghibli, Disneyland, Sony Interactive Entertainment, Square Enix, Rakuten, and lastly, any onsens!
Starting a business
- What types of business interest you?
Media businesses with innovative analytics and animations interest me because Japan's culture deeply involves animation and has made it very popular. I also have an interest in gaming businesses as the industry for it is competitive and many factors have to be considered for a start-up game to be a successful one!
- What plans do you have in starting a business?
Currently, I have no plans to start a business yet as I have not come up with a viable idea. However, I am interested in exploring more hobbies as well as investing time into more side projects! (such as designing websites, telegram bots or a simple mobile game app for my friends!)
