Why Virtual TSM?
- What motivates you to join TSM?
This particular rendition of TSM was particularly interesting to me as students have the opportunity to visit Silicon Valley. With Silicon Valley being a haven for start-ups while serving as home to some of the largest technology companies in the world such as Apple, Alphabet and Cisco, I want to like to understand and experience why such a unique ecosystem is able to co-exist and flourish. At the same time, I would like to learn from the experiences of successful start-ups and find out what their journey has been and how they have managed to do it. Culturally, I would like to engage and meet new people there, understanding why their views and attitudes towards start-up culture and entrepreneurship are vastly different from that of Asian society and hopefully come back with new perspectives. Lastly, as Silicon Valley is often one of the earliest adopters of new technologies, I would like to learn what are the latest trends or new technologies that are upcoming in Silicon Valley so as to broaden my appreciation for technology.
