INNOVATION & STARTUP DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT INTERN
Feb 2024 - March 2024
At XNode, I worked within the innovation accelerator team to help bridge start-up founders with corporate partners.
It was my first real experience in the innovation space — seeing how ideas, investors, and execution come together to drive new ventures forward.
From research and marketing support to helping at accelerator events, I learned how fast-paced and collaborative the start-up world can be.

Working with Start-ups
At XNode, I worked with start-up founders and helped them prepare for meetings with potential partners. Seeing fresh ideas turn into real innovations was genuinely inspiring.
Accelerator Events
I supported XNode's Accelerator Events, where founders share their business ideas with coporate mentors.
This gave me a close-up view of the importance of connection building in the business world.
Marketing Support
I also created short write-ups and visual content that highlighted what was happening at accelerator events.
This provided me with an eye-opener towards B2B marketing.

INDUSTRY PROJECTS — TEACHING ENTERPRISE PROJECT @NYP
SEPT 2025 - DEC 2025
During my Teaching Enterprise Project (TEP) at Nanyang Polytechnic, I worked on real industry projects to showcase what I've been doing through the past three years, applying what I've learned to real business needs and deliverables.
I led a marketing team to manage collaborations with Kee Song Group and the Singapore Retailers Association (SRA), focusing on content creation, campaign planning, and event marketing.
These experiences gave me the chance to lead projects from planning to execution, while improving how I communicate and present ideas to real clients.

Content Creation & Campaigns
At TEP, I worked with Kee Song Group to improve their brand visibility and online engagement.
I created social-media visuals, short videos, and recipe content that helped strengthen their presence on Instagram and TikTok.
Events Management & Marketing
I also had the chance to support the Singapore Retailers Association Gala Dinner 2025 together with my team.
It was a valuable experience managing marketing materials, coordinating activities, and speaking with industry professionals.
Livestreaming & Public Speaking
Beyond client work, I hosted livestream sessions featuring student projects and collaborations.
Those sessions helped me grow more confident on camera and sharpen how I present ideas to a live audience.
