Spring Break in Silicon Valley

February 17th, 2010

It’s official! Were both headed to spring break in Silicon Valley with EEP. Although I was out there in October to hang with the MyFit crew, it’ll be great to go back for another 5 days of entrepreneury goodness as we get to tour Palo Alto and Sand Hill Road (if we must…), see the Google and Apple campuses, possibly meet Randy Komisar and Guy Kawasaki and hopefully Steve Blank, the list goes on and on. Best of all, NCSU heavily subsidizes the trip such that the 5 days of airfair, food, and lodging only costs $300.

We’re still waiting on a lineup of who we are definitely going to visit. I’ll try to post an update when I get it.

Also, i’ll be doing the local tour here as part of a joint venture between NCSU and Southern Capitol Ventures (thanks to Jason Caplain for hosting the trip each semester). We’re set to hit canvas on demand, iContact, and a few more. These are always fun to do. Any time you see a founder’s eyes light up telling you their story, something powerful happens in the surfacing of emotions and harnessing of energy to add even more fuel to my business drive.
