Enterprise Estonia, a government funded program, brought a group of journalist from Estonia to the U.S. for a conference on Innovation and Journalism at Stanford University from May 21st to the 23rd. As they traveled such a great distance and happened to be in the innovation capital of the world, Enterprise Estonia asked GEP to schedule some visits for them to compliment their conference. The journalist objectives were to learn about the innovation policies and concepts of companies in the Silicon Valley, learn how the media is involved in this process and network with fellow peers. GEP was proud to provide a day trip to Red Herring, the San Jose Mercury News and Socialtext Inc. for this group. The journalist were able to meet all their objectives and make a connection with some of the top organizations based in Silicon Valley.
