Quote: iLEAD has definitely made me more receptive to this dynamic business world. What i get from the textbooks and lectures can only reach a certain extent, but what i experience and observe during the internship gives me the opportunity to explore much further! In addition, you will gain much insights about entrepreneurship in the local context - from the problems a CEO has to face to the critical decisions he needs to make which would inevitably determine the future of the company. I’m certainly looking forward to see the difference in culture at Silicon Valley!

Passion: I hope to contribute to the healthcare industry!

Company: I had my internship with AWAK Technologies and it was indeed a fulfilling and enriching journey. I was part of the technology development team during my first half of the attachment. The developmental phase was tough as we conduct experiments one after the other. However, it was a great experience to work with people of different niche - engineers, designers, nurses and scientists - for a common goal, which was to develop the first wearable dialysis machine in the world! The second half exposed me to the business aspect of the company, dealing with marketing assigments mostly. All in all, i really enjoyed myself with the biotechnology startup!
