Each morning, a small-group session with a founder, operator, or investor who has built or backed companies from zero in Silicon Valley. No panels. No slides. Questions only.

Each afternoon, a behind-the-scenes visit to a company shaping the Valley's ecosystem — from frontier AI labs to seed-stage start-ups. Confirmed hosts include Microsoft, with NVIDIA and OpenAI in the pipeline.

Time at Stanford Venture Studio, Y Combinator, and Pear VC goes beyond a tour. You'll sit in rooms with managing partners, portfolio founders, and the people who decide what gets funded and what doesn't.

Curated dinners, two larger networking events, and a farewell evening with mentors and judges. The cohort is ten people — small enough that every conversation is real, every introduction is warm.
