Why Travel Bubble TSM?

  • What motivates you to join TSM?

I believe that this TSM will provide a great opportunity for me to learn about other foreign cultures and how businesses outside of Singapore have effectively utilized innovative technologies to solve problems and improve the lives of their people. Also, through my past internship experience with Smart Nation and Digital Government Office, I had the privilege to interact with foreign head of states (for technology) to better understand their country's digital transformation plans where part of it entails plans on how they intend to support start-ups businesses in the field of technology. These value adding conversations along with my strong interest for businesses, further fueled my desire to learn more about the start-up environment where I have limited experience in. As such, I am confident that the TSM provides the ideal learning platform for me to gain the relevant experience and knowledge on what it takes build a successful business, understand the limitations and ways to solve it and to allow me to gain insightful perspectives.
