That was an amazing and inspiring program: Getting exposed to Silicon Valley environment and mindset, seeing all the different technologies and innovative organizations (startups and big corporation) supporting those technologies, and interact with Silicon Valley insiders on-site. Sebnem Dag Guven Vice President of Strategy at Akbank, Turkey
It’s my first time to San Francisco and the Valley. Even though I heard a lot about it, read a lot about it, google it if you like, it doesn’t compare to coming here and actually meeting people, hearing the stories, and really get observed into that stories. We came with a few things we wanted to achieve: how can we build an innovation culture, how we can positively contribute to our ecosystem: what are the things we need to start or finish: how do we use water for example, and how do we look into environmental monitoring on app, and how we can use drones and the whole range of other technologies.

The tour was fantastic and networking that we established here was great. This tour is more about the atmosphere – to see all these companies and people inventing and reinventing all these technologies is inspiring. Thank you SVIC. Gerson Santos Projects Manager at York Region, Canada
