9. why did we organize the blogger bus tour?
to ask the question: is there a new wave of
innovation coming or will we witness the decline
of Silicon Valley?

10. our blogger team investigates
> is innovation alive
and kicking in Silicon
Valley?
> what makes the
Valley tick?
> who are the next big
stars – will it be all
Google and
Facebook?
> how does the Valley
fund innovation?

11. our blogger team investigates… more!
> institutions and
organisations integral
to the Valley’s
ecosystem
> the secrets of start-up
success
> work and lifestyle in the
Valley
> Silicon Valley is the
home of technological
innovation but what
does the future hold?
