Why Virtual TSM?

  • What motivates you to join TSM?

As an individual who loves to explore and a co-founder of a startup, I would like to see and learn how startups tackle their identified problems and how they manage their organization. From my experience, running a startup is not a simple task. Furthermore, Silicon Valley is where all the great startups are, and I believe that I will have a fruitful experience by joining TSM. Other than visiting companies in Silicon Valley, I am excited that I am given an opportunity to meet like-minded individuals, tackle different problems, and innovate new solutions that we can possibly identify. By constantly participating, this is how we can learn and grow more.

  • Where would you like to visit?

Silicon Valley: Apple, Google, Meta, Visa, Helix, BigPanda
I would also love to visit India, the UK, or China. Many great solutions have started in these countries.

Starting a business

  • What types of business interest you?
  1. LegalTech- Automation, Creating new solutions to support law processes
  2. FinTech - Digital Payments
  • What plans do you have in starting a business?

Though I do not have any concrete plans yet, I would love to explore how technology can reshape the law and financial industry for organizations and the public.
LawTech has been growing over the years. However, many areas need to be researched due to regulatory and legal expertise.
As for FinTech, I would love to delve deeper into digital payments. India and China are a few countries that tap a lot into digital payment, which has shown me that there is much to improve in Singapore's digital payment sector.
