This book gives an answer by insiders, by prominent business leaders and academics from the heart of the Valley.

Instead, its edge derives from a complex "habitat" or environment that is tuned to turn ideas into products and take them rapidly to market by creating new firms.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>"Must reading for anyone who wants to understand the driving point for the New Economy.
