Starting a business
- What types of business interest you?
While I am generally open to most types of businesses, I am mostly intrigued in areas of FinTech, smart living consumer technologies and platform businesses (Grab, Shopee). I believe that as the world moves on from the pandemic, we will see an even more vibrant technological space in the world with technologies infiltrating many areas of our lives. I hope that I can develop an innovative solution that can improve people’s living standards and conveniences.
- What plan do you have in starting a business?
My current plan is to learn and develop myself such that I will be well-versed with the different technologies and business models in the world. I want to broaden my perspective more so that I can find a real-life problem that can be solved by viable technological solutions that can be developed within the span of half a decade. I also want to expand my circle such that I can find like-minded individuals that are interested in pursuing the innovations I am seeking.
