Why Virtual TSM?

  • What motivates you to join TSM?

To gain technoprenuership experience.

Was selected for Silicon Valley Forum Start Up back in 2019. It was a rare opportunity to be given an opportunity to Silicon Valley to learn from the different startup leaders and work on a business idea. However, due to the lack of subsidies and grants (wasn’t even approved by school), I had to be opted out for its huge expenditure. Now that there’s this TSM (Virtual), hopefully, it can realise my dream to pop to send me to different parts of the world, gaining a MEGAAAA experience :)

Starting a business

  • What types of business interest you? Technology-based that will change the way we do things

Anything that revolves around design, particularly UX/Service design as it takes a holistic approach to create/improve products or services, making businesses more successful. And without good design, development couldn’t start. We need designers to understand users’ wholeheartedly and ensure that whatever they need is being implemented well enough. Designer is essential!!

  • What plan do you have in starting a business? (list existing business

Honestly, I don’t exactly have a plan in starting a business. But, who knows if it might change my mind after this experience?
