San Jose Mercury News "It's not just the big companies that are exporting. San Jose-based Silicon Valley Microelectronics, Inc., for example, has increased its overseas sales of silicon wafers by about 50 percent in the last year, to about $6 million, says SVM president Patrick Callinan. That accounts for about 40 percent of the company's $15 million in annual receipts."
	Fortune Small Business SVM "...fits the profile of the type of small business client big banks are looking for. They want customers who have sizable deposits, are in a good financial position and have strong growth prospects."
	Business Advisor Magazine "They call it Silicon Valley, but where can you get the silicon? Ask Patrick Callinan. In 1990, Callinan decided to leave a multinational firm to set up a niche business supplying silicon wafers and wafer processing services to the semiconductor industry"
	Silicon Valley Business Journal "The $20 million company with 25 employees (and hiring) sells silicon wafers and counts Europe as one of its largest markets. The dollar's fall has been a significant part of the company's recent sales pitches there, though the rising cost of some supplies from Japan also has pushed up expenses."
