Inside Silicon Valley's Ultra-Rich Tech Oasis
In this video, we look at what happens when Silicon Valley's elites decide to build a city of their own city? Venture capitalist Michael Moritz had exactly that vision. Backed by a who's who of tech, including LinkedIn Founder Reid Hoffman, Andreessen Horowitz's Marc Andreessen, Stripe co-founders Patrick and John Collison, and Steve Jobs' widow Laurene Powell Jobs. This isn't just idle talk. We look into this audacious plan that aims to create nothing less than a tech utopia near San Francisco, complete with sustainable resources and a walkable city layout.
But, as you'll see, the road to utopia is fraught with challenges. Mysterious land purchases are causing a stir among local authorities and even led to an Air Force investigation. With so many questions surrounding the project, from legal hurdles like challenging California zoning laws to logistical obstacles, will this dream ever become a reality?
The big buyer was Flannery Associates which has now renamed to California Forever.
