Why Virtual TSM?
- What motivates you to join TSM?
The startup scene has always fascinated me, it's amazing how a small idea can make such a huge impact. I'm always thinking about fresh disruptive ideas, but implementation and taking the first step is the daunting hurdle that i face. I want to learn how successful startups actually start and push through the incredibly high failure rate.
- Where would you like to visit virtually?
Silicon Valley, London, Bengaluru, Shen Zhen
Starting a business
- What types of business interest you?
Disruptive service providers that capitalise on data. Businesses like Uber and Stashaway that create blue oceans to solve unknown pain points. They are asset light and incredibly agile, enabling them to quickly react and always make themselves relevant and competitive. I'm amazed by these businesses that innovate at breakneck speed, and would like to learn their processes.
- What plans do you have in starting a business?
I aim to start a consulting businesses that disrupts the current saturated consulting industry. I believe many legacy companies do not have the relevant knowledge to make themselves relevant in our ever-changing world. I hope to be able to implement a new business model that will create more value than the current status-quo.
