On day two of our trip, initially we had a morning interaction session with Siju sir in the Sierra conference hall at double tree by Hilton. After lunch we went to visit 42 coding school in San Francisco. 42 is a private, non-profit and tuition-free computer programming school created and funded by French billionaire Xavier Niel. It’s a hub for all the coders out there. The institution has no teachers or mentors to guide you out. They work on the concept of peer to peer learning, where all students help out each other to pursue their passion in coding. It’s a lovely place to visit for all the apple enthusiasts. The place has two floors with 1042 iMac’s on each floor. Students there were working on all kinds of hot topics like AI, ML, VR, AR and Robotics. We had a good interaction with few budding startup’s over there. One of them was working upon playing the game ‘Crisis’ in VR mode. The visit encouraged and inspired us to take ahead our own startup’s. Back at the hotel we started working on preparing our own pitch decks.
