After I joined the conference today, I felt a little tired but I am Happy with it. This is because I have learned something from the business which is to become a leader we need learn from mistake, how to make our Biz Plan successful and accept by investors and etc. However, the conference also got bored part which is the Forum Session and Time to Shine- Reveal Your Business Idea. In forum session, the invited guests only talk about their experiences which this part not attract me to listen. For Time to Shine- Reveal Your Business Idea part, it is because the sound system problem or the sound of the speaker not loud enough. I can’t hear what the groups have been presented in front. Lastly, we have given a gift bag before we dismiss. I also have attached some picture about the conference in below.
