I would like to take this moment to thank our charter members for their commitment and dedication towards helping OPEN Silicon Valley reach new heights.
At its core, OPEN SV is a volunteer-led organization; we have an extremely passionate team of volunteers from within Silicon Valley and across the globe. Their sheer dedication and devotion towards the organization and its programs help us achieve the many milestones we aim towards every year. To our volunteers, thank you for taking out the time to make OPEN a success and making our organization proud.
