Last week, on May 13th, STARTBOARD and GGC successfully hosted 2017 G.G.C Enterprise Interview. This event is not only a chance for International Students to listen and learn from the guests’ stories but also a chance to introduce themselves and to drop the CV for job seeking.

In this event, we were so proud of our batch 1 Team Aimazing for their first product demonstration in Taipei, Taiwan. They have showed to all the guests that hard work paid off and nothing could stop us to achieve the dreams.

SUCCESS” does not lie in “RESULTS” but in “EFFORTS”. Being the “BEST” is not so important, “DOING” the best is all that matters.

What a night it was when Team STARTBOARD attended the event MOX x Innoventure Friday Happy Hour with Geoffrey Handley on Friday, April 28th . Tremendously inspirational to hear all the international entrepreneurs talk about their journey, the ups and downs they faced and what kept them motivated to achieve success.

STARTBOARD visions constant motivation and plans on hosting such inspirational events in the future with the support of our TEAM and BATCH MEMBERS and help network more and more ASEAN-Indian Students who seek opportunities in Taiwan as well as for Taiwan Companies who are interested in recruiting ASEAN-Indian Talents or invest in ASEAN-Indian Market. Nothing can keep us from success if we keep working hard until we reach our goals and beyond.
