Why TSM?
- What motivates you to join TSM?
I would like to join the TSM programme to Tokyo because this opportunity would allow me to experience and learn more about their innovative culture as well as increase my exposure to emerging technologies. Japan would be an ideal location to learn more about techno-entrepreneurship because it is the home to some of the world's leading tech companies and startups such as SONY, LINE, Toyota, Fujifilm and Nintendo. I hope to be able to gather with like minded people and forge bonds that last beyond the classroom!
- Where would you like to visit?
Tokyo: RED Tokyo Tower, Ghibli, SONY, Nintendo, Tsujihan
Starting a business
- What types of business interest you?
Some types of businesses that interest me are social enterprises and healthcare technology but not limited to these only. I am definitely open to interesting ideas that can value add! I feel that by focusing on businesses that aim to solve important issues in society, one can have a rewarding and meaningful career while also making a positive impact.
- What plans do you have in starting a business?
I definitely want to start a business in the future or be part of a start up. However, i want to upgrade and improve my skills first. I hope that through TSM i will gain the relevant knowledge, experiences and exposure to entrepreneurship which i think are equally as important as technical skills.
