Last week we concluded our second 9-Day Executive Program at our  NASA Ames campus in Silicon Valley. Forty-five entrepreneurs, CEOs, venture  capitalists, and government leaders came from over 15 countries and the feedback  we are receiving from participants has been remarkably positive. Over 90% of  participants rated the program very highly with one third saying it was their  \u201cbest program ever!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Our next 9-day program is coming up on April 30 \u2013 May  9th. The program concentrates on six exponential growing technologies:<\/p>\n<p>1. Artificial Intelligence and Robotics<\/p>\n<p>2. Nanotechnology<\/p>\n<p>3. Biotechnology and Bioinformatics<\/p>\n<p>4. Medicine and Human-Machine Interfaces<\/p>\n<p>5. Networks &amp; Computing Systems<\/p>\n<p>6. Energy &amp; Environmental Systems<br \/>\nAttending the program provides an understanding of  how these accelerating technologies will transform your business and your  industry by showing you\u00a0what is in the lab today and where the technologies will  be in 5 and 10 years.
