| Gold Sponsor This year, SRI is celebrating 65 years of world-changing innovations. Our initiatives in education research, innovation practices, and economic growth are more relevant than ever-especially now, as the digital generation completes its education, joins the workforce, and leverages its consumer strength. As a sponsor of the Global Innovation Forum, SRI is inspired to engage in discussion of what the emergence of this generation means to universities, enterprises, and society around the globe.

We acknowledge the generous support from the following organizations in promoting this event.
 | Meet the Digital Generation. Also known as Gen Y, Net Generation, and Echo Boom. And to most of us, known only as a mysterious “Youth” category. They are 10-25 year old, born 1980-1995. There are 65 million of them. That’s one in four Americans. They’re young. And they’re wildly responsible. These kids won’t just surprise you. They’ll impress you. And IDEO is proud to discuss our insights at the upcoming “Innovation and the Digital Generation” Forum. |

 | SVII, the Silicon Valley Innovation Institute is proud to support SJSU’s 2011 Global Innovation Forum in Silicon Valley. As SVII was founded to support “innovation advocates at all levels everywhere” by helping them “turn vision into value”, we see this pioneering Lucas Graduate School of Business forum as precisely addressing the critical path for global economic recovery. Dr. Oliver Yu and Dr. Stephan Kwan have put together a unique program focusing on “Innovation and the Digital Generation”. Clearly the large differences between these digital natives and the preceding generations digital immigrants need to be better understood in order for us all to work together in the Innovation Trenches.

 | The SJSU Career Center is a proud supporter of the Lucas Graduate School's first Global Innovation Forum: Silicon Valley. We recognize and support the need to identify and harness the unique innovative power of current and forthcoming generations of students, employees, entrepreneurs, and global citizens. |
