San Jose is the largest city in the San Francisco Bay Area, the third largest in the state of California and the tenth largest in the United States of America. It is located at the southern end of San Francisco Bay and is the county seat of Santa Clara County.

The city originally began as a farming community supporting Spanish military installations. It served as the first capital once California gained statehood in 1850 and began its journey of great growth. The surge in population was considerably due to soldiers and other veterans returning from World War II, as well as an aggressive expansion during the 1950s and 1960s. In the 1990s the city advanced towards technology industries and these have remained a vital component of San Jose ever since. Today, San Jose is home to a very high concentration of high-technology engineering, computer, and microprocessor companies. The area of and around the city is known as “Silicon Valley” with San Jose naming itself as "the capital of Silicon Valley." Thousands of engineering and computer science graduates enter the local economy every year from prestigious schools such as the University of California, Berkeley, Santa Cruz, San José State University, San Francisco State University, California State University, East Bay, Santa Clara University, and Stanford University.

The Tech Museum, or Museum of Science and Technology, displays interactive exhibits for all ages and backgrounds, educating and studying the internet, the human body, and exploration. It offers an appreciation of how technology affects our everyday lives. An IMAX Theatre, a cafe, and a retail store offer insight, knowledge and merchandise unique to the Silicon Valley.
