In conversation with Silicon Valley

In this video, some of the Silicon Valley speakers discuss the qualities they think make a great entrepreneur, their predictions for the next big trends in tech, the ideas they wish they'd had and their thoughts on the truest measure of success.

As a collective group they also talk about the need for more entrepreneur friendly immigration policies to stimulate start-up success around the world.

The Silicon Valley Comes to the UK Programme is a series of events bringing together investors, iconic serial entrepreneurs, ambitious students and successful angels from the UK with leading Silicon Valley talent.

The objective is to inspire students and alumni to consider starting or joining an entrepreneurial business at some point after graduation and to foster relationships between top entrepreneurs, angels and investors from Silicon Valley and Europe.
