About the course

Silicon Valley isn’t a place; it’s a set of ideas about how to build the future. This course will immerse you in the key concepts that drive the world’s fastest growing companies and the people behind them. Over six weeks, you’ll explore the essential books, essays, and talks that have shaped the culture of Silicon Valley, giving you the insights to understand the stories and strategies behind its rapid growth.

“Silicon Valley is a curious thing. It doesn't have an architectural center; there's no forum that is the center of Silicon Valley. The center of Silicon Valley moves around. It is wherever there is at this moment the greatest concentration of the people who are going to make the next generation of stuff.”

Paul Graham
