Tech Tour
The Tech Tour was formed by Venture Capitalist Sven Lingjaerde in Geneva, Switzerland in 1998 in response to growing interest to visit emerging technology companies in various European regions. The Tech Tour is an independent organization composed of key contributors to the high-technology industry. The Tech Tour recognizes that continued prosperity in Europe lies in its ability to transform today's innovative projects into tomorrow's global technology leaders. As of 2013, the Tech Tour will collaborate with International Venture Club (IVC) and Europe Unlimited on several events.
Tech Tour's contribution to the high tech industry is through the development of European regional Tech Tours and Industry Summits that bring together the entire technology ecosystem of local and global players.

Famous quotes containing the word tour:
“Do you know I believe that [William Jennings] Bryan will force his nomination on the Democrats again. I believe he will either do this by advocating Prohibition, or else he will run on a Prohibition platform independent of the Democrats. But you will see that the year before the election he will organize a mammoth lecture tour and will make Prohibition the leading note of every address.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
