ITEMS International is partnering with TVLP to give a premium access to Silicon Valley to French and international ventures in its network.
Silicon Valley is the epicenter of technology entrepreneurship, the place where Twitter, Facebook, Tesla, Uber, Google, and Apple were born. Beyond that, it is unique in its incredible network of highly skilled professionals who have migrated here from cultures all over the world. The Valley is where “anything can happen”, the place where you can learn to “think and act big” and positive. Nobody cares how old you are, how you dress, or what nationality you are. The most important thing is what you are able to do.
TVLP is a perfectly designed combination of lectures, mentoring, and social events. It provides state-of-the-art training along with valuable networking opportunities. The classes are taught by a ‘dream-team’ faculty comprised of celebrated entrepreneurs and thought leaders who teach at globally recognized universities (Stanford, Berkeley and Santa Clara). Mentoring is provided by Silicon Valley based investors and entrepreneurs who work with each participant to refine his or her venture concept. That includes some personalized help in developing and delivering an effective pitch. During the final event, those with the best pitches will have a chance to present to investors. To round out this experience, participants are involved into a variety of networking events as well as visits to investors, startups, incubators, and renowned high tech firms.
