WHY YOU SHOULD ATTEND

Foreign-born entrepreneurs share their stories about making it !

Some Silicon Valley "greats" will join us for a lively, humorous discussion to tell us what influenced them in their lives, how they persevered, and what ways they have chosen to give back to the communities that helped them succeed.

Many of these executives don't just have one successful start up, they are often "serial entrepreneurs"; this doesn't mean they haven't had their ups and downs as well, but they turned their challenges into positive lessons and moved on and upward in spite of them.
