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.

A visit to Director General of Small and Medium Enterprise Administration, Ministry of Economic Affairs (中小企業處吳明基機處長 )

Our team had visited Dr. Wu Ming- Ji on 19th April. It seems April is a good start for the STARTBOARD’s team when having so many opportunities to meet up and present about the project to government’s representatives.

Dr. Wu is representative for Small and Medium Enterprise Administration. He showed an exact concern to the development of small and medium business from ASEAN and INDIA as a part of New Southbound Policy. IMG_2796

We are impressed by the stories from Indonesian migrants in Taiwan, aside from the display of work describing the daily life, the custom of Indonesian. More specially, it’s touching seeing the wall of notes showing the thankfulness for migrant contribution and the understanding of their difficulties.
It strengthens STARTBOARD team’s belief and passion that together, we can create more values for the society.
