The Silicon Valley Study Tour seeks to create and maintain an important bridge between young graduates, researchers, business angels, “start-uppers”, managers and entrepreneurs with the many successful Italian and Italian American high tech, biotech and venture capital executives in the Silicon Valley.
Thanks to the above 15-year of experience, the Boston Study Tour was born in August 2022, with the same goal of making a bridge between the Italian and American-Italian tech community of the East Coast.


SVIEC, the Silicon Valley Italian Executive Council, plays a critical role in fostering this bridge as it remains the only organization to have assembled the top Italian and Italian American high tech, biotech and venture capital executives, all of whom serve as outstanding role models, mentors and potential business partners for Italy’s current and next generation of entrepreneurs and technology executives.
42 N, a benefit corporation born in Boston in 2021, has the same goal of SVIEC in Silicon Valley: being an interface for Italian students, startups and entrepreneurs based in Italy with the Italian tech community in the Boston Area.
