19世纪末,利兰·斯坦福夫妇来到遍布着果园和农田的硅谷,在这里建立了斯坦福大学。随后而来的科学家们,在一个多世纪的时间里,把这块阳光明媚、气候宜人的谷地变成了改变整个星球历史的创新与创造之地。这一人类史上伟大的科技与财富创造历程,为什么会发生在硅谷?究竟是如何发生的?其他地方是否可以复制出“硅谷”? At the end of the 19th century, the Stanford couple went to Silicon Valley, where they planted orchards and farmland, where Stanford University was established. The ensuing scientists have, for more than a century, turned this sunny, pleasant climate valley into a place of innovation and creation that changed the entire history of the planet. Why did this great history of science and technology and wealth creation in the history of mankind happen in Silicon Valley? How exactly did it happen? Can other places replicate “Silicon Valley”?
