    Silicon Valley Connect creates programs, services and initiatives meant to build bridges between Silicon Valley and the rest of the world. That said, the "bridging" is not only across geographies, but also across various types of businesses (including startups, the venture capital community, large organizations, and governments). The common characteristic of all engagements is the recognition that a) relationships built on substantive interactions are extraordinarily valuable, b) technology is fundamentally powerful tool whether trying to disrupt an industry or solve some of our biggest challenges, and c) a global perspective will not only provide a distinct advantage but will be essential for those championing innovation and entrepreneurship.
