Columbia Business School and Silicon Valley

Stanford: The opinions expressed in this commentary are solely those of the author, according to CNN. From Bogota to Moscow to Milan, cities around the world aspire to be the next Silicon Valley. He teaches entrepreneurship at Columbia Business School and trains and coaches early-stage startups around the world. This is both a noble aspiration and a near-impossible dream. Stanford was a hub for tech talents and over the decades transformed the valley into an ecosystem for countless electronic and software companies. The catalyst that turned the valley into what it is today is one that nobody should want: World War II. In the 1940s, the best and brightest engineers were tasked with inventing technologies that can help the United States win the war. (news.financializer.com). As reported in the news.
