How Stanford the CIA/NSA Built the Valley We Know Today

How much does an average Googler know about the history of the place
he works in? Silicon Valley.
Come and test your knowledge. I have seen this talk and I assure you -
even seasoned Silicon Valley
veterans will find this story interesting. Silicon Valley entrepreneur
Steve Blank will talk about how
World War II set the stage for the creation and explosive growth of
Silicon Valley, and the role of
Frederick Terman and Stanford in working with government agencies
(including the CIA and the
National Security Agency) to set up companies in this area that
sparked the creation of hundreds
of other enterprises.

Speaker: Steve Blank
Steve Blank spent nearly 30 years as founder and executive of high
tech companies in Silicon Valley,
most recently the enterprise software firm E.piphany. He has been
involved in or co-founded eight
Silicon Valley startups, ranging from semiconductors to video games,
and personal computers to
supercomputers. He teaches entrepreneurship at U.C. Berkeley's Haas
School of Business,
Columbia University and Stanford's Graduate School of Engineering.

As a former USAF EF-111A navigator I found this video fascinating. The USAF EW School in San Antonio ought to invite Mr Blank out to speak to the students there.

but the British and Germans and Americans are all controlled by the same people..

bargd73

I couldn't help but notice stupid comments. Fantastic video, it answered a few questions i wondered about.

danieleriskay

Umm.. I don't think you know what fascism is. You described a characteristic of fascism, but also a characteristic of communism, socialism, and "mixed-economy-ism." It's not the defining characteristic of fascism.

danieleriskay

Why write in an anti-american kook like Ron Paul? I'd prefer a candidate who supported the founding fathers, not some kook trapped in libertarian fantasy-land.

highlandsnake

Buy/read THE REVOLUTION by Ron Paul who still, by the way, is still 'in' the race.
Go ahead... write him in.

wulfone

We should be talking about Ron Paul.

nickqt

ahh, the intertwinement of government and industry, or, fascism.

hooray.

*SWITZERLAND* was also alone... ;-)

Very interesting. You would have thought though he could have got his facts re RAF bombers right. The LANCASTER was the RAF bomber, the LANCHESTER was the Lanc's used as civilian airliners after the war.

militaryradiomuseum

No, the Manchester was twin engine, the Lancaster was 4 engine. The Limcoln was the Lancaster in RAF use after the war. The Lanchester was the civilian Lancaster used after the war.

SpacedCadet09er

Yes that is a little gloomy to imagine, it may have been that way between 1939 and 1945 only. In London it has been sunny more than that and it is still winter.

There's a Firefox extension that lets you download YouTube videos.

Clap 3 times, spin around and say the person you want to be with forever, post this on 7 pages. On this Saturday that person will realize how much you mean to them... you don't do this... that person will think the opposite and never want to see your face again! It worked for me, just try!!!

I have found that the secret only works when you know more about it. It doesn't give enough information in the movie. Here's a free cd that explains the rest. You can get it at astrologychick-dot-com

antienjigglement

I knew there was a reason I have always enjoyed Terman's writings.

JonThm

GW is nuclear power fiction!

notimetoplay17

In the most fundamental terms (including prototypes), EVERYTHING, with the sole exception of GSP, that is used in aircraft, missiles, aerial and electronic warfare today, was invented during WW2. The only difference is the quality and improvements to those fundamental devices. (of course their are a lot of detail differences, the point is it was started in WW2, and made better, and thus the point of this lecture.)

54spiritedwill54

Excellent overview! I had the same question as the guy that asked about "spoofing." I guess that one will require a little digging for an answer.

chchand

The "Lanchester" was a 4-engine version of the 2-engine Lancaster. Similar to the 4-engine Manchester, thus the punning name.

"Only 4 clear days in fall and winter in EU". Never been to EU, I presume?

swagv

I had no idea that "real footage from World War II" starred Gregory Peck!

johnengler

can you offer this is a downloadable version, so I can watch it offline?

mec31

'Lanchester' bombers, 'what was then called Cape Canaveral', typos. Perhaps just sloppiness, but it does call into question what is a great topic.

PvUtrix

Russia's contribution undervalued as usual...

g7vak

Hello Dan
I agree with that although Jones' book does itemise the pre-war development of radar.
We gave radar and codebreaking technology to America when they were forced to join in WW2 18months after it started.Cheers Paul

denkaself

Is it any strange this did not make it into the lecture? Understandably, mentioning that could have made making the case for technological superiority harder. Excellent lecture, but now I'm less sure of who wanted to attack whom during the Cold War.

iching64

I'm sorry, but this is news? Of course, Silicon Valley was a Pentagon/Intelligence creation. Who else had the money or motivation? Noam Chomsky has made reference to this reality for decades now. For a further appreciation of how 90% of R&D is military funded, read "The Science of Coercion" by Christopher Simpson for how the Pentagon drove the research agenda in the social sciences after WWII. They don't call it the "military-industrial" complex for nothing.

Subtitle or caption please?

atroutshat

Yep, the Wellington, Halifax, Mosquito, Short Sterling, the older Blenheim and so on. My original comment was just to point out the error. You know, in Alex Henshaw's book "Sigh For A Merlin", he actually did a full loop maneuver in a bomber (can't recall if it was a Wellington or a Lancaster)! Imagine that! This while he was test-piloting it, so he could push it to its absolute limits. Anyhoose. Cheerio.

versarchi

maybe it was a silly mistake but that's all it is if you look at the results for lanchester there is something of interest lancaster/wellington I don't know about a halifax ??

Somerset27

Hi, You don't have to read Jones' book to know something about his role. In Churchill's war memoirs, there is a chapter called "The Wizard War", in which the Cabinet meets with "the boffins" to learn about radar, etc. Reading between the lines, the young Mr. Jones is the only one who knows what he's talking about, Churchill grasps that, and invites him to do the talking. Good luck, Dan S

atroutshat

Googled. This is nothing to do with the Lancaster Bomber, which is a very famous aircraft. I remain surprised about this error, and it makes me wonder about the veracity of the rest of the information contained in the presentation. Sloppy.

In 1956 my mother worked at the Stanford engineering dept, workied for 3 scientists. Dr. Villard, Dr. Eshilman and one other. Villard was head of the dept. I'm wondering now if this was all part of the Terman group. I being down from Alaska, my mother was able to get me a summer job within her department. I use to deliver parts to these various radar dish sites around the Stanford campus. 17 so of course I knew nothing. But looking back now I'm sure this was all"spook"work.

atroutshat

Those "Lanchester Bombers" are interesting, the Brits must have switched from the Lancaster Bombers they usually used!!! Silly mistake!

bdelgado95

That's the high-tech field for you. I read a lot of technical documents and they are all peppered with typos and mispellings. It also seems discouraged to ask people to correct them. I guess they try to convey concepts foremost and aren't that concerned with typos. Sigh.

g7vak

An interesting video. Unfortunately watching this one has the perception that the electronic developments in WW2 all came from the US.I don't suppose American libraries keep 'The Secret War' by RV Jones but if they do - give it a read and you'll see where a lot of the actual developements and ideas came from.

GrantBegan68

It depends on who uses the net and for what reasons. For example - this video reinforces the notion that WWII was all about the Germans. But it fails to state that both sides of the war were financed by the same international bankers and international banking corporations. Follow the money - it pays for everything.

GrantBegan68

This is just the tip of the iceberg. Check out mime11 dot com

tuffyb17

After watching this I felt like I was just given a peek into a parallel universe that co-existed alongside the one I thought I was the entire world. This is X-Files material. Are these spooks still around? Did the investment in all this military technology change the trajectory of any consumer devices? DSP's, cell phones, etc.? Was it wasted? How come no one writes or talks about this?

ruffumbra

If there ever was a video that proves the value and power of YouTube and the web this is it. How many people work and live in Silicon Valley and didn't have a clue about any of this. Only questions are how much of this is true and if it is how did he find it out and no one else has?

DBF2006

Excellent video, but someone needs to proof read this guy's power point slides. For someone discussing such high tech topics in an educational environment, it's almost comical when their slides show 2nd grade gramatical errors of not understanding the difference between plural and posessive cases!

nvradio

Excellent overview! I had the same question as the guy that asked about "spoofing." I guess that one will require a little digging for an answer.

techistory

Wow, if you depend on the popular press you'd never know any of this! Required viewing for anyone interested in Silicon Valley. This should be a book or movie about Terman. Thanks Google for making us smarter.
