Sand Hill Road, often shortened to just "Sand Hill" or "SHR",[1] is an arterial road in western Silicon Valley, California, running through Palo Alto, Menlo Park, and Woodside, notable for its concentration of venture capital firms.[2] The road has become a metonym for that industry; nearly every top Silicon Valley company has been the beneficiary of early funding from firms on Sand Hill Road.[3]

Its significance as a symbol of private equity and venture capitalism in the United States has been compared to that of Wall Street and the stock market.[4]
