Ta chansen!

Silicon Valley - innovatörer, entreprenörer, drivkrafter... här finns oerhört mycket kunskap att "svampa in" och hit flyttar jag i juni. Snacka om att det ska bli galet intressant och kul :-))

Silicon Valley is a tech center. Just as you’d want to move to New York or L.A. to launch your entertainment company, you want to move to the Valley to launch your tech company.
Silicon Valley-based investors are more aggressive. Consider Facebook’s case: “Facebook was started in Boston. Boston VCs had the first shot at them. But they said no, so Facebook moved to Silicon Valley and raised money there. The partner who turned them down now says that ‘may turn out to have been a mistake’.”
The concentration of tech in Silicon Valley is also a plus: “In addition to the concentration that comes from specialization, startup hubs are also markets. And markets are usually centralized. Even now, when traders could be anywhere, they cluster in a few cities. It’s hard to say exactly what it is about face to face contact that makes deals happen, but whatever it is, it hasn’t yet been duplicated by technology.”
