San Jose is the largest city in Silicon Valley and the effective capital of the global semiconductor industry — Adobe, Cisco, and Broadcom headquarters sit alongside thousands of fabless chip designers, equipment vendors, and contract manufacturers along the North First Street corridor. The city generates more patent filings per capita than almost any US municipality, and Sand Hill Road venture capital is a 20-minute drive north. San Jose's economy is uniquely B2B: most local SMBs serve enterprise buyers with long sales cycles, technical procurement requirements, and compliance standards that consumer-focused consultants cannot navigate. Post-2022 layoffs from Meta, Google, and Apple flooded the South Bay with senior operators who are now founding companies — creating a surge of second-time founders who demand execution-grade advisors, not slide decks. The Silicon Valley SBDC at San Jose State provides free baseline consulting, pre-qualifying paid buyers.
