Fireside chat: The Roadmap to Silicon Valley
Over the past few years, the Silicon Valley-based Silkroad Innovation Hub (Palo Alto, California) has built a permanent bridge between Ulaanbaatar and the heart of the global tech ecosystem. Serving as a vital ecosystem anchor, Silkroad has systematically helped Mongolian startups land in the U.S. market, secure venture capital, and pitch on world-class stages.
Join us for an evening with Asset Abdualiyev, Founder and CEO of Silkroad Innovation Hub, to discuss how we can deepen these ties and accelerate local innovation.
Asset will share insights from Silkroad’s ongoing global initiatives, including the AI Leaders program the massive regional executive training framework developed in collaboration with Stanford Human Centered AI (HAI) and OpenAI Academy (creators of ChatGPT) that actively included organizations from Mongolia. This session will focus entirely on how Mongolian tech leaders, founders, and enterprises can leverage this established Palo Alto-Ulaanbaatar corridor.
