Connecting students to Silicon Valley and beyond
Innovative career treks and immersive professional development experiences for students

We create in-depth career treks that are tailored to fit student interests, majors, and professional goals. We expose students to careers in their fields, and teach them about the unique culture and history of Silicon Valley.

Students are at the center of everything we do, and we support them through events, workshops, demos, mentoring and networking opportunities, and reflection activities.

We believe that students learn best when they are active participants in their education. Our students actively engage in learning and discovery, and they learn how to apply their classroom knowledge to industry.
We work with universities and companies of all sizes to create dynamic and personalized professional education programs that allow students to apply their classroom knowledge in real time, while experiencing life in the worldwide hub of tech and innovation. Our core services include:
+ Career treks and Silicon Valley history excursions
+Professional development events
+Internship and job shadows at startups
+Company visits and hands-on learning

“My guide’s leadership made the program an incredible experience. He connected us with startups and companies where we could learn and intern during. . ., and he kept our cohort engaged with unique activities across the Bay Area. His dedication to student success and program development truly stood out, and it’s a big reason I felt confident moving across the country to the Bay Area after graduation.” –Undergraduate computer engineering student
“My guide created an enriching program that not only helped me learn about the tech industry in the Bay Area but also gave me an exciting glimpse into what life could be like here. Thanks to the Pike Street team, I felt confident and capable applying to tech jobs coming from a non-technical background; I landed a role in San Francisco and ultimately made the move to my dream city.”
