Learning Expeditions

Learning expeditions are a custom-made program geared towards groups seeking an intense learning experience in Northern California.

The FACCSF team is here to plan and execute with you an immersive mission that will take your group to the heart of Silicon Valley and San Francisco.

We tailor your program with a strong focus on your goals, whether you come for inspiration or to collect actionable ideas to implement in your company. We adapt to the background of the participants, from corporate groups to master's degree students, and to the subject you want to tackle.

Here are a few examples of topics you can explore with us: Future of Mobility, Biotech, Innovation, Startup Culture, Cleantech, Supply Chain, Wine industry etc.

Through the program, you will meet high-profile companies that are truly representative of the Silicon Valley, discover the Bay Area’s unique culture, and be introduced to entrepreneurs and startups.

Our programs can vary from one meeting to a full week, and are filled with presentations from enterprises from the Bay such as LinkedIn, Airbnb, Uber, Facebook, Google, Pinterest, workshops and panel discussions.

Our program is meant for you to meet inspiring leaders and professionals so you can build up an extensive network in the area.

Get in touch today and let your group discover the corporate side of the Silicon Valley from the inside.

What they say about previous learning expeditions...

Origamix

"The FACCSF has been a key partner for Origamix in organizing the highlights of our learning expedition. Thanks to the amazing work of Laurence Fabre and Axelle Gouverneur, we got the chance to meet the most outstanding players of the Valley and the Bay Area. What seemed to be impossible was made possible by the FACCSF, and we are extremely grateful for it. When we get to play again in San Francisco, we will definitely embark on this journey with the FACCSF, to make sure that the locked doors don't stay closed for long."

Matthis Pierotti, CEO and Founder of Origamix

ACOME

"ACOME has been organizing, in many different locations worldwide, a Symposium for the past 30 years. The one in San Francisco was exceptional thanks to FACCSF support. Driving 200 participants (experts in telecommunications, the automotive industry, smart building technology) through a learning expedition in the Silicon Valley and the Bay area was a real challenge. It had never been done before. We had the opportunity to visit and discuss with most of the key players, such as startups and new tech companies. Contacts have been established for long term relationships between our congress members and some of our hosts. FACCSF did a great job. We highly recommend their know-how ; concrete results with a very friendly and professional approach!"
