Why Virtual TSM?
- What motivates you to join TSM?
I want to learn more about the tech startup landscape in Korea as I believe it is important to know about startup landscapes and culture in other countries as the world becomes more globalized. I also hope to network with people in the tech startup ecosystem in Korea I hope could lead to cross-border collaborations involving communities from both Singapore and Korea. I am also attracted by the experiential learning as I find travelling around and engaging in hands-on, interactive activities an interesting and effective way to learn.
