2022 State of the Valley

2022 State of the Valley

By Brittney Sherman

Since 1995, Joint Venture Silicon Valley has published the Silicon Valley Index, a nationally recognized publication that tells the story of Silicon Valley. The Index indicators measure the strength of our economy and the health of our community, highlighting challenges and providing a data-rich foundation for decision making.

The State of the Valley is an old-fashioned “town hall” meeting. This year’s State of the Valley was held at Stanford University and included a briefing of the Index by Russell Hancock, a panel discussion with Michele Lew from The Health Trust and Jim Wunderman from Bay Area Council, and a keynote presentation from the Washington Post’s Eugene Robinson. Performances by the Stanford Taiko, Stanford Talisman and a poetry reading by Santa Clara County Poet Laureate Tshaka Campbell, highlighted the spirit of togetherness.

The City of Morgan Hill was honored to attend and be a part of the 2022 State of the Valley. Get your copy of the 2022 Silicon Valley Index (jointventure.org) HERE
