From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Silicon Valley Engineering Council is an umbrella organization of engineering societies in the Silicon Valley of California.[1] One of its missions is to recognize the heritage of engineering in the Silicon Valley with its Hall of Fame for engineers that have had meaningful impact to society.[2]

Hall of Fame

[edit]

There have been less than one hundred engineers added to the Silicon Valley Hall of Fame since it's inception in 1989. The inductees have demonstrated significant engineering or technical achievements, provided significant guidance in new and developing fields of engineering-based technology, and/or has managed or directed an organization making noteworthy contributions in design, manufacturing, production, or service through the uses of engineering principles and applications.[3]
