Why TSM Silicon Valley?
- What motivates you to join TSM?
I am greatly interested in finding out more about companies in the Silicon Valleys; how they operate, what led them to such great success etc. Through this TSM, I believe I am able to gather more insights and hopefully am able to be more inspired to start my own startup one day.
- Why pick Silicon Valley?
Silicon Valley has always been renowned as a place where great minds and great companies come together. It's a place that has given birth to many great ideas and I want to see it for my own eyes!
- Ideal role in the trip
Social Media Manager / Marketing
Starting a business
- What types of business interest you?
App development, advertising, internet companies
- What plan do you have in starting a business?
Currently, I am busy with helping my friend out with his drone aerial videography company, mainly doing the social media aspect of it.
In the near future, I plan to start my own social media company, providing services such as Search Engine Optimization, Social Media Marketing to companies in Singapore and beyond.
Past Experiences (optional)
During the summer, I competed in the Lee Kuan Yew Global Business Plan Competition, which sought to seek out interesting ideas that can make Singapore a smarter nation.
I have also done a lot of marketing online in the past, having experiences in Search Engine Optimization (SEO), Search Engine Marketing (SEM) and Facebook Ads etc.
In December, I will be interning with a local startup to help them with their Online Marketing efforts, which I believe will greatly strengthen my efforts and interest in Online Marketing.
What keeps you ticking?
