In this video, I break down the top tech trends that have shaped Silicon Valley over the last 20 years, giving a clear look at how the industry has evolved. Here, I've constructed a proprietary Trend Index to quantify the rise and decline of key tech movements, from the early 2000s to the present. This index is built on two parameters: *Venture Capital Investments* - The amount of funding allocated by VC firms into startups across various categories. *Media Mentions* - The frequency of trend-specific mentions in influential tech media outlets such as TechCrunch, Wired, and The Verge. The index is normalized to 100, with 100 representing the highest possible hype level for any trend during a given period. Please note, there is potential for overlap between some trend categories due to naming conventions. Trends such as AI and Machine Learning may intersect, reflecting how technological terms are often grouped together by investors and media. Additionally, some trends, like the *Metaverse* showcase unique dynamics in my ranking. While there was little to no VC investment flowing to startups in this space (aside from Facebook's massive internal investment), the sheer amount of *media buzz* surrounding the topic propelled it to a high ranking, albeit a short-lived one. Conversely, topics such as Telecom maintained a relatively low profile in the press, yet the massive investments funneled into this sector significantly elevated its position in my index. All financial and media data used in this analysis is sourced from open datasets, ensuring transparency.
