2017 Recap:

2017 was a memorable year for the Silicon Valley Office of Protocol – busy and rewarding – capped off by the very successful Protocol Training Symposium and Holiday Luncheon at the Filoli Estate in Woodside in December. This year-end event brought together elected officials, members of the Consular Corps, government affairs teams from major Silicon Valley corporations, including Facebook, Google, and Tesla, and other local leaders interested in keeping up-to-date on “best practices” in protocol and diplomacy.

We look forward to an exceptional 2018 in which we all promote kindness and respect throughout the world, especially in the culturally diverse and internationally important Silicon Valley.
