Why Virtual TSM?
- What motivates you to join TSM?
Honestly, I've not went to anywhere else other than Malaysia. TSM provides a great opportunity for me to expose myself to the world, and at the same time learn more about entrepreneurship in the tech industry! Furthermore, it would be an amazing experience for me to see the beauty of SV, a place where many tech enthusiast would love to visit one day
- Where would you like to visit?
Silicon Valley: VMWare, Cisco Systems, Intel
Starting a business
- What types of business interest you?
Businesses that are related to Cybersecurity, Servers and Networking are definitely something I wanna see, but I'm also interested to see how Apple works when pushing out products and how they sell to clients by just refreshing their lineup of items, so cool eh! Imagine selling the same few items yet hitting such big numbers.
- What plans do you have in starting a business?
I have thought of trying to start a small business to experiment with, and using technology to optimise the business processes. I plan to get more capital first, and pick up a variety of skills to see what I can start with. Perhaps my obsession over ToastBox and YaKun might drive me to startup a classic chain of coffeeshop business, but it is still too early to tell! 🫣
