About the Exhibit
The story focuses on the local factors and folks contributing to this very special place. Displays highlight the ingredients in the recipe for Silicon Valley (Stanford, the military, funding, climate…). Nowhere else was there the same combination of things that existed in Silicon Valley: brilliant minds, cheap land, great weather, casual lifestyle and what’s called “cowboy capitalism” – the belief that there is nearly unlimited money to be made.
