Why TSM Hong Kong?

  • What motivates me to join TSM?

Firstly, Hong Kong would be the furthest country I have ever traveled to as I am not really someone who travels for fun. Apart from that, I am very interested to see the entrepreneurship scene of various places around the world. I have always been very interested in wanting to be able to put myself around successful entrepreneurs as I would want to be able to think like them. I believe that entrepreneurs are the most creative and driven people out there. Apart from being able to learn so much just by being exposed to the scene, I have heard a lot of fun stories of previous TSMs and I am really keen to be able to learn, and at the same time, have a little break from the classrooms.

  • Why pick Hong Kong?

I was disappointed as I missed out on the previous TSM, which was to San Francisco. I have heard good stories and have even seen the reflections on the reflection page. It was a highly beneficial trip as based on the reflections, the team really enjoyed their days over there and it seemed like a very eye-opening trip. I would not want to miss a trip tot he silicon valley of China. As I have not really traveled very far away from Singapore, I am also very interested in seeing an entrepreneurship scene in another well-developed country. I have found out from some of my friends who are from or have visited Hong Kong that it is a very fast paced country where people are always in a rush, an even bigger rush than what we see in Singapore. A fast paced environment excites me as something new pops out every now and then which brings along new opportunities and challenges. Another thing about Hong Kong that I am very interested about, is its real estate industry. Hong Kong is one of the world's least affordable housing market and I would want to see how does this factor affects entrepreneurship scene and how do successful companies alleviate this issue as this could be quite a significant barrier.
