Tell us about your International Experience trip. Where did you go? What was your favorite part?
Funny thing about my IE: it was a "domestic" US trip to Silicon Valley. But for someone from Greater China who spend MBA life on the East Coast, crossing the country to the Bay felt like its own kind of border crossing.
A week of visits to Samsara, Suki AI, LG ventures, Google, and more gave us conversations you can't get from a podcast or a pitch deck. The moment I keep coming back to: at the farewell dinner, a serial entrepreneur alum turned back on his way out and said, "Knowing how to use AI isn't enough. what matters is how it plugs into real workflows and real teams." That one line, after a week of context, landed differently—and reshaped how I think about my next career move.
