Our agenda today A brief history of Silicon Valley…. A look at the people, the companies, the universities, that created
it. A discussion on why it exists, what are the ingredients that make it
tick?
The folklore… how the entrepreneurial spirit of Silicon Valley is woven into the culture…. the self belief…. the competitive core… of the people in the valley… and its connection to the American dream itself.
The Technology what are the technologies we have seen emerge and what is emerging now…. and why are they important.
And finally we want to look at what sustains American entrepreneurship?

Caveats I am an Engineer not a historian. The story can be told with many different
perspectives…. This is just one possible perspective.
I will not mention many things that you might consider an important part of the story….

Microwave Valley? Customer = Military Problem = Penetrating and disabling the USSR
radar network. Objective:
Signals Intelligence – to understand the USSR radar systems
Jammers – to disable the USSR radar systems Stealth – to reduce radar footprints of US aircraft
Solution: Microwave power tubes Electronically tunable High power, broad frequency range, and high speed
