Russian programmers are renowned in American for their programming skills.

Putting venture capital into Skolkovo research hub as part of the Global Innovation Partnership forum will help to get Russian Silicon Valley up and running.

Craig Barrett, co-chairman of Skolkovo's board of directors, Jeffrey Henley, chairman of Oracle's board, and Dan'l Lewin, Microsoft's vice president for strategic and emerging business development should really enjoy their time in Russia.

I truly admire California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger's initiative to lead a delegation of U.S. venture capitalists from Silicon Valley to Russia on October 10.

May this visit to the Skolkovo research hub result in many funding opportunities for the US companies.

My own project below initiated by the Russian arts will create 22,000 jobs in Canada, 66,000 in Russia, 220,000 in the United States and 4 million around the world. The result is trillions of dollars being pumped into technology companies in Silicon Valley California which can then be pumped back into Russian software and hardware development initiatives.

We are a global economy and when everyone participates in their own small way, every country benefits with increased employment, increased international trade, positive international relations, and the creation of new and better computer hardware, software and products.
