Enough about Silicon Valley. 
Let's discuss your assignment.
What aspects would you like to explore during your stay?

I'd like to gain insight into the process of investing in startups.
Additionally, I'd like to understand the criteria and focus areas that go into investing. 

Sounds great.
Understanding these aspects will lead you to explore the ecosystem.
I think the best way is to attend pitch events.

Pitch events?
The events where startups pitch their ideas to potential investors?

Yes.
Startups present their service or product ideas to investors,
and investors explore which companies to support.
I'll be attending a pitch day in Palo Alto next Wednesday,
so why don't you join me?

Thank you, I'd love to.
