Daniel in USA on 15th March with YubiCo’s founder Stina Ehrensvärd
The Prince Daniel's Fellowship tells at its website about last week's entrepreneurial trip to USA.
At a reception at home of Barbro Osher, Sweden's consul general in San Francisco, the delegation listened to Sir Michael Moritz (Sequoia Capital).
Gustaf Ahlströmer (AirBnB, Y-combinator), Stina Ehrensvärd (Yubico) and Jimmy Abrahamsson (Grepit) are Swedes who established themselves in Silicon Valley. They shared their experiences during breakfast meetings. The delegation met also Eric Vishria and Miles Grimshaw from Benchmark Capital Partners.
During the trip, the delegation met successful American entrepreneurs, NVIDIA's founder and CEO Jensen Huang, Salesforce's co-founder and CEO Parker Harris and Sila Nanotechnologies' co-founder and CEO Gene Berdichevsky. The group also learned about the role of universities and researchers in the West Coast innovation ecosystem, at a visit to the University of California San Francisco Mission Bay, where Chancellor Sam Hawgood and team received together with researchers and active actors in BioTech and Life Science. At Stanford University Rector Marc Tessier-Lavigne talked about the university's vision for the future and the establishment of a new school for sustainability, the largest investment Stanford has made since 1980. At the Exploratorium Science Museum, the delegation listened to a panel of Nobel Laureates Elizabeth Blackburn, Saul Perlmutter and Paul Milgrom.
In Seattle they visited Amazon's flagship logistics center and the head office. At Microsoft's head office the group took part in several lectures on the company's work, global cyber security commitments and sustainability strategies. Boeing showed its manufacturing facility, its quality assurance efforts and presented its work to data-driven streamline the development of the next generation of aircraft. Sweden's Ambassador Karin Olofsdotter hosted a reception at the National Nordic Museum in Seattle. The reception rounded off the trip and the next day the delegation returned to Sweden.
