The Silicon Valley trek was the best business experience I have had so far during the MBA. As an entrepreneur with a technological background, it was incredible to visit amazing companies that started from scratch, such as Google and Zynga.

After four days (Monday to Thursday) visiting the most valuable and innovative companies in the world, we could have our own impressions about the Valley entrepreneurial environment. On Friday we took time to visit an incubator and listen to professors to match our impressions about what makes Silicon Valley an impressive place to start a technology company to the points mentioned by people who study the Valley history.

The main lesson is that Silicon Valley has this characteristic because the environment has: a collaboration attitude, critical mass (engineers, lawyers, bankers and investors), culture of failure celebration and an eco-system of innovation.
