The Silicon Valley Study Tour Network wants to link Italian graduates, researchers and business angels with Italian origin executives and startuppers around the world

About Silicon Valley Study Tour Network

Welcome
Since 2005, three Silicon Valley Study Tours of two weeks have been organized by La Storia nel Futuro and Aizoon, both leaded by Paolo Marenco and SVIEC, Silicon Valley Italian Executive Council founded by Jeff Capaccio. SVIEC is an organization which has gathered the very top Italian and Italian American executives in high tech, biotech and venture capital to network, socialize and stay current on technology, public policy and the law. As the only group dedicated exclusively to these issues and these top executives, SVIEC has a membership of over 400.
Our Goal
The goal is to create a permanent bridge between young graduates, researchers, business angels and startuppers from Italy and the many executives of Italian origin working around the world. Whoever recognizes himself in our goal, is welcome in this Network.
