Solving transit, housing and even turkey trotting across Silicon Valley, Carl Guardino, The President and CEO of the Silicon Valley Leadership Group, has been one of the most influential business and community leaders in Silicon Valley for over 24 years.

 

Having worked alongside SPUR on several issues facing our Bay Area, we were saddened to hear the announcement that he will be stepping down and retiring as CEO later this year.

 

Please join SPUR’s San Jose Director, Teresa Alvarado as she speaks with Carl Guardino for an evening fireside chat to reflect on Carl’s accomplishments and legacy as well as current efforts to set the path for economic recovery as a co-chair of the Silicon Valley Economic Recovery and Resilience Council.
