Fenwick & West is at 801 California Street in Mountain View. It is a few blocks from the Mountain View Caltrain station. There is a free parking garage at Bryant Street under Fenwick and a side entrance to the building on California Street and you can also enter from Castro. (Fenwick sits on the corner of California and Castro - Castro is in the front, Bryant in back.) After the event, press the button on the gate to ask for the door to be lifted so you can retrieve your car. An attendant will be there; don't worry.

If you have paid for a VIP ticket or are an honoree (or accompanying an honoree), we will see you at 5:30 pm! Barb and Bart O'Brien will be pouring their magnificent O'Brien Winery Estate wines during the VIP reception until they run out! The main networking begins at 6 pm.

It will be a high-energy event - an inspiring evening with our outstanding honorees and mingling with founders, social impact leaders, business leaders and VCs.
