Silicon Valley
United States
Silicon Valley connects 5835 places across 28 topics through 747 Bunkabop connections, with industry as the dominant thread. The region accounts for a third of all venture capital investment in the United States and traces its tech roots to 1951, when Stanford Research Park seeded companies like Hewlett-Packard and Varian Associates. The integrated circuit and microprocessor were both developed here. Strong overlaps run to San Francisco, China, and India, reflecting the global reach of its tech industry beyond science and education connections.
