With a grand prize of $250,000 in seed stage funding, the competition is believed to be the largest winner‐take‐all business plan competition for university students. During the morning session, 16 teams from 12 universities on the West Coast presented business plans to a panel of 10 judges, comprised of venture capitalists from the DFJ Network. Six teams were selected as finalists and presented extended versions of their business plans and answered further questions from the judges in a second round of competition in the afternoon. Following the final round of judging, NeuroVigil was awarded $250,000 in seed funding. NeuroVigil is poised to revolutionize brain analysis and plans to target the sleep, transportation, and pharmaceutical industries. The company, which comprises several Nobel Laureates and leading business strategists, was founded in 2007 by Dr. Philip Low, who, as a graduate student at the Salk Institute, developed a new way to analyze brain activity using a single non‐invasive probe.

Draper III Hollar: So Bill, here I think is the challenge. There's been a great oral history done of you at Berkeley; and then you've written your book. So there's a lot of great information about you on the record. So what I thought we would try to— Draper: That's scary. I hope I say it the same way. Hollar: Well, your version of it is on the record, that's for sure. So I wanted to cover about eight areas in the hour and a half that we have. Draper: Okay. Hollar: Which is quite a bit. But I guess that's also a way of saying—we can go into as much or as little detail as you want to. But the eight areas that I was most interested in covering are your early life and your education; your early career—and with that I mean Inland Steel and meeting Pitch Johnson, and Draper, Gaither & Anderson, that section. Draper: Good. Hollar: Then Draper & Johnson—you and Pitch really getting into it together; then, of course, Sutter Hill and that very incredible fifteen-year period. Draper: Yeah, that was a good period. Hollar: A little bit of what you call "the lost decade." Draper: Okay. Hollar: Then what I call the Draper Richards Renaissance. Draper: Good.

    The Bay Area Innovation System How the San Francisco Bay Area Became the World’s Leading Innovation Hub and What Will Be Necessary to Secure Its Future A Bay Area Science & Innovation Consortium Report produced by the Bay Area Council Economic Institute Principal Author Sean Randolph President & CEO Bay Area Council Economic Institute Contributing Author Olaf Groth CEO Emergent Frontiers Group LLC June 2012 Message from the BASIC Chairman For more than 50 years, the Bay Area has been a leading center for science and innovation and a global marketplace for the exchange of ideas, delivering extraordinary value for California, the nation and the world. Its success has been based on a unique confluence of research institutions, corporations, finance and people, in a culture that is open to the sharing of new ideas and willing to take significant risk to achieve extraordinary reward. The Bay Area innovation system is also highly integrated, with components that closely interact with and depend upon each other. The Bay Area Science and Innovation Consortium (BASIC), a partnership of the Bay Area’s leading public and private research organizations, has pre- pared this report to illustrate how the Bay Area’s innovation system works and to identify the issues that may impact its future success. Ensuring that success will require partnership between the public and private sectors, continued investment in the region’s core assets, and attention by state and federal policy makers. Mark Bregman Senior Vice President and CTO, Neustar, Inc. Chairman, BASIC Acknowledgements This report was prepared for the Bay Area Science & Innovation Consortium (BASIC) by the Bay Area Council Economic Institute.
