💫 What an unforgettable evening celebrating the SVIEC 20th Anniversary and honoring Jeff Capaccio's legacy at Donato Enoteca!   We were honored to have the Mathematician and Tech Entrepreneur Silvia Veronese deliver a special presentation highlighting the significance of our 20th anniversary.   Mark J Capaccio, Jeff's son, graced us with his presence, as did Patti Lusk, Jeff Capaccio's long-time partner, both sharing their heartfelt reflections.   Thanks also to Paolo Marenco, founder of the Silicon Valley Study Tour and to ‪Ministero degli Affari Esteri e della Cooperazione Internazionale DGSP Director General Mauro Battocchi for for their video messages, further enriching our celebration.   What an insightful discussion we had on the American Dream, discussing some of the challenges that we confront today and how we can overcome them. It was truly inspiring to hear from our special guests:   ▪️ Janet Napolitano - Former President of the University of California and former United States Secretary of Homeland Security under President Obama ▪️ John A Sobrato - Founder of the Sobrato Philanthropies and The Sobrato Organization, a key figure in Silicon Valley's real estate landscape ▪️ Sergio Strozzi - Consul General of Italy in San Francisco, most recently served as the Head of Legal Matters at the Directorate General for Resources and Innovation in Rome   A heartfelt thank you for joining us for this special occasion. Your presence made this event truly memorable.   Here's to another 20 years of fostering connections, driving innovation, and chasing the American Dream together! 🚀
