What is a Learning Expedition?
Our Learning expeditions in San Francisco & Silicon Valley and Los Angeles are immersive experiences designed to witness the forces that shape tomorrow, so company executives or university students can project themselves into the future.
Through a customized program designed by FACC California, we connect business communities to understand challenges and opportunities, and help navigate cultural differences. We coordinate site visits and arrange one-on-one meetings with key industry executives, as well as networking events with local industry leaders.
By opening minds and shifting perspectives, our learning expeditions inspire management teams and C-level executives, and help them in their transformation journey and innovation strategy.
How it works
Step 1: Initial Consultation
The journey begins with our first call, where we aim to understand your organization's or institution's goals and aspirations. This initial consultation lays the foundation for a customized learning expedition tailored to meet your specific needs and objectives.
Step 2: Planning the Expedition
Once we've aligned our visions, we move on to meticulous planning. This involves charting out the entire visiting expedition to San Francisco, Silicon Valley and/or Los Angeles, considering key factors such as dates, locations, and logistical arrangements. Our team works closely with you to ensure a seamless experience, from accommodation to transportation.
Step 3: Speaker and Company Engagement
In this crucial step, we collaborate on identifying and engaging expert speakers and companies who will contribute valuable insights to your learning expedition. Whether it's industry leaders, academic professionals, or thought leaders, we ensure that the speakers align with your objectives, providing a wealth of knowledge and fostering meaningful interactions.
Step 4: On-Site Support

Step 6: Post-Expedition Evaluation
After the expedition concludes, we conduct a comprehensive post-event evaluation.
