The Science of Low Carb Diets: Reversing Diabetes and Enhancing Sports Perfor...Tahoe Silicon Mountain
Tahoe Silicon Mountain, a network of entrepreneurs and professionals who live and work in the Tahoe-Truckee area, is pleased to welcome Stephen Phinney, MD, PhD to present at Mountain Minds Monday: The science of low carb diets: reversing diabetes and enhancing sports performance
While low carbohydrate and ketogenic diets have recently gained popularity, problems with proper formulation and adherence have overshadowed the scientifically-supported improvements shown for both health and sports performance.
Dr. Stephen Phinney, MD, PhD, co-founder and Chief Medical Officer at Virta Health, will explain how when well-formulated ketogenic diets are combined with virtual continuous care, compliance is high and the risks and expense associated with type 2 diabetes can be reduced.
He’ll also discuss how the research supports the use of the ketogenic diet for ultra-endurance competitive athletes who do not thrive on the traditional carbohydrate-loading approach to the sport.
Dr. Phinney has spent 40 years studying diet and exercise, has published over 80 papers and 4 books. He received his MD from Stanford University, PhD in Nutritional Biochemistry from MIT, and did post-doctoral training at the University of Vermont and at Harvard.
Mountain Minds Monday will be held on Monday, July 9th from 6-8 pm at Pizza on the Hill, in Tahoe Donner located at 11509 Northwoods Blvd., Truckee. Pizza and salad is available and we use a pay-what-you-can model ($5 minimum). Before and after the presentation, there will be time for networking.

Self-Flying Drones: On a Mission to Navigate Dark, Dangerous and Unknown WorldsTahoe Silicon Mountain
http://tahoesiliconmountain.com/
Tahoe Silicon Mountain, a network of entrepreneurs and professionals who live and work in the Tahoe-Truckee area, is pleased to welcome Dr. Christos Papachristos to present at Mountain Minds Monday: “Self-Flying Drones: On a Mission to Navigate Dark, Dangerous and Unknown Worlds”
Even with all our current technical advances, dangerous and unpleasant jobs are still a part of modern life. Imagine a world where flying robots could be used to navigate in any environment, under any possible conditions, and complete risky tasks that humans currently perform.
Dr. Christos Papachristos, Post-Doc Researcher at the Autonomous Robots Lab at University of Nevada, Reno, will be speaking about how, without the benefit of GPS or previously mapped environments, drones can be used in beyond line-of-sight operation to autonomously navigate, map and explore dark and dusty, partially sealed or underground, and generally visually-degraded environments like mines or nuclear waste sites.
Dr. Papachristos will discuss the use of regular cameras with flashers, inertial sensors, 3D-structure time-of-flight cameras combined with infrared cameras, ionizing radiation detectors, and the logic behind the algorithms that guide the drones on their missions.

Tahoe Silicon Mountain, a network of technology professionals who live and work in the Tahoe-Truckee area, is pleased to welcome Dick Schulze to present: “Fame, Fortune, and Exploitation: The Fascinating History of Patents and Patent Trolls.”

Tahoe Silicon Mountain, a network of technology professionals who live and work in the Tahoe-Truckee area, is pleased to welcome Gunnar Newquist to present: “Improving Artificial Intelligence by Studying the Brain”
Current artificial intelligence (AI) only works with big data and lots of processing power, and it only delivers a solution for the particular problem for which it was designed. The next revolution in AI, called artificial general intelligence, is for a machine to learn, plan, and acquire new skills in complex environments.
Gunnar Newquist, CEO of Brain2Bot, received his Ph.D. in Molecular Neuroscience at the University of Nevada, Reno and went on to found Brain2Bot, which is using principles of intelligence derived from neuroscience to build artificial general intelligence.
Newquist will discuss how neuroscience can help us deliver AI that is both safe and effective and how some of the biggest advances in AI have been inspired by advances in neuroscience.

Unveiling the Secrets How Does Generative AI Work.pdfSam H
At its core, generative artificial intelligence relies on the concept of generative models, which serve as engines that churn out entirely new data resembling their training data. It is like a sculptor who has studied so many forms found in nature and then uses this knowledge to create sculptures from his imagination that have never been seen before anywhere else. If taken to cyberspace, gans work almost the same way.

23. MTN. VENTURES SUMMIT
(Feb. 27-March 1) - TRUCKEE, KEYNOTE
* 41 Mountain & Gateway Communities (U.S./Western)
* 150 Attendees - 3 Days (Council members, local government,
entrepreneurs, environmental organizations)
◦ Truckee Mountain Housing Council, Tahoe Truckee Community Foundation (Stacy)
* 300 Attendees - Public Panel Session
23
24. A network of leaders building entrepreneurial ecosystems in
mountain towns… Mountain Venture Summit Vision
● We are focused on building sustainable entrepreneurship
ecosystems in mountain towns.
● The world of work is changing - people can work from anywhere and
create companies with international reach from their coffee table -
we (mountain towns) need to leverage this shift by attracting
startups and smart/interesting people.
● If you can start a business from anywhere, why not start it steps
from the ski slopes.
25. Summit Workshops had 3 Tracks
Sustainable Recreation: Both the draw and backbone of what brings people to
mountain towns. How do we preserve, protect and leverage our natural resources in
a responsible fashion?
Infrastructure and Community: Infrastructure innovation in housing, broadband, and
physical working space is critical for supporting entrepreneurial ecosystems. Creating
and leveraging an entrepreneurial culture is essential to starting and maintaining a
vibrant community.
Innovation and Investment: Most mountain communities are dependent on snow fall
and tourism to sustain their economic vitality. How do we create the third leg of that
stool and galvanize our communities around supporting innovative businesses to
relocate, stay and grow?
26. Should you launch an Accelerator or an
Incubator?
Definitions: Accelerators = Incubators on steroids!
Proverb: If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go
far go together!
27. Accelerators
● Later stage companies
● Usually will end with capital offering in exchange for
equity convertible note
● They are often themed: Retail, Niche
● Lots more invested in the relationships
● Investors are commonly looking at the funds targeting 3x
plus returns
28. Accelerators
● Get caught in the funding cycle of needing another
round of finance
● Every round of funding can mean giving up 15-20% of
business
● Telluride established four boot camps six weeks long- did
not work
Lesson Learned from Telluride- Moved to two week boot
camps and focused on developing their Incubator model
29. Incubators
● Companies at an early stage of development. “I have an
idea, what do I do?”
● Step above coworking
● Usually pay $1500-$2000 to participate for 2 week
bootcamp
● Telluride built on start up week-end and developed
intensive 2 week boot camps for Incubator participants
30. Telluride Incubator
● Married housing for incubator company participants
through property management collaboration
● Model is quicker for investors
● Found female entrepreneurship goes up 50%
● Easier for Angel Investors to become involved
● Funding $ from the Greater Colorado Venture Fund
31. Greater Colorado Venture Fund
Our Mission
We are a venture capital fund investing in early stage
startups headquartered across the state of Colorado,
outside of the Front Range. We are working to inspire
innovation in places formerly overlooked by venture funds.
32. Greater Colorado Venture Fund

33. Telluride
Entrepreneurial Ecosystem focus is:

million with no more than 30 employees
Note: Using their Incubator and Colorado Venture Fund as
their vehicle
35. Exercise: Milestone Mapping
Recommended goal setting process. Important to do this with your entire start up team
1. Draw your goal posts
2. Define your long term goal
3. Insert hash tags - and list the three most important things to get there
4. Create a time box- Using sticky notes: do a retrospective. In the last 3 months what have
been your key moments?
a. How did these key moments make you feel? (different color sticky)
b. What did you learn? (different color sticky)
c. What are the key goals to move your company forward in the next 3 months
(discussion)
5. Set Goals : Specific, Measurable, Aggressive, Realistic and Time Phased
6. Every 3 months go back and see if your goal posts have changed.
7. Define your key customers at each new iteration
