Greg Baker, director of the Food and Agribusiness Institute and Naumes Family Professor of Management, was quoted in a KQED California Report story, which also ran in the national NPR program Here and Now, about Silicon Valley eyeing opportunity in Cuba.

An excerpt from the piece:
“After taking students from Santa Clara University to Cuba over the past three years, Gregory Baker thought he’d seen it all. But in September, he saw something in Havana and other towns that made his jaw drop.

“The biggest thing that surprised me this year was walking into a square and seeing Cubans on smartphones — antiquated smartphones but smartphones nonetheless — and accessing the Internet freely,” says Baker, director of Santa Clara University’s Food and Agribusiness Institute and the student immersion program.”
