Why Virtual TSM?
- What motivates you to join TSM?
I believe very strongly that a study of global markets provides a clearer lens to grasp the opportunities that technology brings to society, which led me to pursue both economics and computer science in SMU. I fervently want to explore how founders from a different society keep their edge in a diverse and highly volatile industry, and how I can incorporate these learnings into my dream to start my own business in the future. Even more so that it is Japan, known for its startups thriving in small niche markets.
- Where would you like to visit?
Tokyo: SoftBank, Z Holdings, PayPay(Subsidiary of Z Holdings), Mercari, Ghibli sounds pretty fun!!
