Why Virtual TSM?
- What motivates you to join TSM?
My previous internship at CARRO allowed me to experience and feel the startup culture firsthand. Having further conversations with Kelvin, one of the co-founders of CARRO, further sparked my interest in technopreneurship. I have always wanted to learn about the interesting use-cases and applications of technology to help solve problems/provide business opportunities in niche markets.
- Where would you like to visit?
Tokyo: Softbank, SEGA, Paidy, BitFlyer
Starting a business
- What types of business interest you?
I am personally more interested in fintech companies, as I believe that technology surrounding payments is still constantly evolving. I am also interested in the sports and gaming industry as well, being an avid gamer myself.
- What plans do you have in starting a business?
I am interested in starting a business in the gaming industry, as I believe that there is a potential market to tap on in the Southeast Asian markets. Although I do not have any concrete plans to launch a business yet, I hope that through TSM, I can acquire the skill sets needed to assist me to open my own business.
