About
I have lived in the Silicon Valley since 1980 and in my opinion, it is by far the pre-eminent technology center on the face of this planet.
Silicon Valley is unlike any other place in the world. It embraces innovation and does so by inviting gifted people from all walks of life. The bottom line is that if you are smart and have something to offer, we want you!
I founded http://www.Taos.com in 1989 and ran it for more than 32 years before merging with IBM in 2021. During that time, I had the good fortune of working with some of the brightest and most interesting individuals who have contributed to the rich fabric of the valley.
Friends of Ric is all about these personalities sharing their unique journey through Silicon Valley thereby giving you insights into this truly extraordinary place.
