Silicon Valley Entrepreneurs & Startups - SVE

The holiday hike on Dec. 20 has been rescheduled to Jan. 10 due to significant rain in the forecast.

Kick off the new year with fresh air, sweeping views, and a brand-new community of outdoor enthusiasts! Explore Local Nature and MyTrailPals are teaming up for a special "New Year Winter Cheer" hike at the beautiful Windy Hill Preserve. Come on out to unplug and recharge with us!

Why is this event listed in Silicon Valley Entrepreneurs Meetup? Local nature tech! Explore Local Nature founder, Mike Kahn, (who now also leads Entrepreneur Hikes in this Meetup) met MyTrailPals founder, Gunjan Utreja, on his first Entrepreneur Hike. Both companies launched products this summer and were inspired to collaborate.
