March 7, 2016 in Santiago Chile we went to visit the offices of Microsoft. My expectations of this visit were really different after completing the tour of Microsoft. We take a tour in the Imagine Lab of Microsoft which is a business accelerator of start ups of Chile. I was amazed of seeing Mac computers in this Microsoft lab. The first speaker was about a start up company developing a smart software for homes and buildings. This business accelerator is focus to develop small technological companies using the tools that Microsoft offers, but one of the most important tool that Microsoft can offer is the networking; and it is really valuable.
This Networking tool is very important for the fact that in this program a small start up company is converted in a huge start up company because is now linked with Microsoft's huge network. Now, they can get connected with hundred of clients and get help from a lot of people around the world not just in Chile. I just realized that after understanding the concept of this business accelerator.
At the end of the tour the General Manager of Chile came up and talked about the power of networking and about how Microsoft is adapting to the new generation; the millennials. He explained to us that today the millennials are creating great things and they are understanding the power of network, which make the imagine business accelerator unique among the other ones. He also expanded his talk with a great example of Sony Playstation and Xbox 360, about how Playstation created the market but 360 innovated it. With the simple fact of innovating and understanding the power of diversity of people we can do great things and create new concepts with powerful tools. Networking, millennials and diversity is the perfect combination to create wonderful things among the world.
