Why Virtual TSM?

  • What motivates you to join TSM?

I first heard about this module when I took Interaction Design & Prototyping (IDP) as a student of Prof Benjamin Gan (good times!!!), and he mentioned that students who were interested in understanding the inner workings of technology startups could consider applying for this module. I'm very passionate about how technology and business intersect and impact each other, as evidenced by my pursuit of a double degree, so this module is right up my alley. Moreover, a friend of mine spoke highly about the experience of planning for her trip.

Additionally, this is also the last semester I'll be able to take the Technopreneurship module without delaying my graduation, so I'm highly keen on going for this module while I still have the opportunity! I would definitely cherish the opportunity to its fullest :)

  • Where would you like to visit?

In terms of technology related destinations that I would like to check out, there are a few I have in mind after having done some research:

  • National Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation, which showcases the latest advancements in robotics, space exploration, and environmental technology
  • Tsukuba Expo Center, which focuses on rockets, robotics and submarine vehicles but also has a cool planetarium
  • Sony Building, with a technological showroom where visitors can test out Sony's latest gadgets

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.
