Is It Possible to Create Silicon Valley Community in Any Other City
at 19:03
Answer
Yes. Living in Palo Alto ten years ago, Sahil felt like he had missed the boat. But, fast-forward to now, having worked his way up, he was able to meet some of the known people in Silicon Valley, and new entrepreneurs have come up, forming new social circles. It's possible to do this anywhere, so long as there's a community willing to work hard.
