A new journey begins
Right after I quit my job, 2 weeks later, I went for an interview. It’s not an job offer interview, however, it’s an interview for the application of Technopreneur Pre-seed Funding programme from MDEC Malaysia. This programme offers up to an Ringgit Malaysia of 150K for start-ups to build their prototype. During my days in the office, i have been quietly writing proposals without my colleagues notice (If they didn’t notice and I assume they didn’t), and I handed up my application the month before i quit my job.
Without knowing if I will be able to get the fund or not, I just quit my job so that I could concentrate to aim for the fund. So, after a risky, shivering, panicking 1st interview with a board of 5 presidents and directors from PIKOM, MIMOS, and MDEC, i can’t really remember all their names and position where my mind is almost at a total blank during the presentation. However, i manage to get through the 1st Interview with 70+ applicants, and which makes me and my team the top 28% that when through the 1st interview. From then, my confidence came back. and I didn’t panic much anymore for the 2nd Interview which was interviewed by a board of 10 members.
Thanks to my partner, K.C as my sales director for being so well presented during the interviews; the Yong brothers, Alan and Nelson for preparing the flash animation files for the presentation; and specially to my uncle and his friend, my father’s friend that has given me such good suggestion and guidance in my presentation skills and slides. Congratulation to us, we manage to secure the fund. So, it’s a start, and a begin of a new journey.
My feelings are so complicated when the news came to me. Besides feeling happy that my proposal has been accepted and i could kick start a dream that will benefits the children, It also means that I have committed to something big, and the responsibility and burden is much more heavier that i never handled before.
Great Powers comes with Great Responsibility, and I will takes whatever to fulfill what has been started. Joove Enterprise Sdn Bhd, is the company that me and my team formed. For the time being, we will be focusing on Animation productions for children. and this marks the start of a new journey…
