Between 1969 and 1976, something extraordinary happened in the fruit orchards south of San Francisco. While America was tearing itself apart over Vietnam and social upheaval, a handful of restless innovators were quietly building the future. They created five entirely new industries in just seven years: personal computing, video games, biotechnology, advanced semiconductors, and modern venture capital. Think about that for a moment-five foundational industries that now underpin nearly everything we do, all emerging from the same place at the same time. This wasn't the work of solitary geniuses locked in labs. It was a story of collaboration, risk-taking, and generational handoffs-semiconductor pioneers passing the torch to younger visionaries who would put computers in our homes and pockets. By 1969, the Santa Clara Valley was transforming at breakneck speed. Newcomers arrived every fifteen minutes for twenty straight years, turning bucolic farmland into suburban sprawl. The population tripled to over a million. Paradise was being paved over, but something remarkable was taking root in its place.
