Why Virtual TSM?

  • What motivates you to join TSM?

As a student/founder/developer, I am passionate about both technology and entrepreneurship. Having immersed myself into the Web3 space both locally and internationally, I want to gain more knowledge on how to run a sustainable tech startup. Most NFT projects fail within a year, and I would like to learn more on how startups provide constant value to users, as well as how new projects onboard first time users to try and eventually use their product. This knowledge will be highly relevant to me and improving my current startup.

Additionally, I want to meet more like-minded individuals to bounce ideas off them and gain new perspectives by widening my horizons.

  • Where would you like to visit?

Tokyo: Softbank, Canon, Ghibli, Sega, Yamaha, Calbee, Suntory Distillery, etc

Starting a business

  • What types of business interest you?

X business with X technology that will change the way we do things.

  • What plans do you have in starting a business?

I aim to start a X business that does X in the X industry. I have X team with X business model applying for X funding. My prototype can be found in X.
