EEP Silicon Valley Trip
During Spring Break the EEP holds its annual trip to Silicon Valley. This trip is made possible largely in part by the generosity of EEP alumni and friends. During this trip the students meet with entrepreneurs and executives from small start-up companies to large multi-national ones with many of them being founded and/or led by NC State alumni.
Many of the students cite this trip as a life-changing event for them. Where they had originally envisioned a more traditional career path they came back seeing entrepreneurship as a viable and exciting career opportunity.
Some of the companies visited in the past include Google, Danger, Apple, Applied Signal Technology, Kleiner-Perkins, Tesla Motors, QuickLogic, and Rosum to name a few.
