What if all the trending #buzzwords, when put together, actually made sense? 🧐 I spoke about global #election campaigns, and how #AI-generated #deepfake was used in trying to skew them. The talk is in Hebrew, but I'm sure there's an AI for that 😉 It was based on detailed research by CP<R>'s Yoav Arad Pinkas, which can be read here - https://lnkd.in/dGfkR4vE Wikimedia Israel Reichman University Check Point Software https://lnkd.in/dRpPKf3X

Where does AI meet the banking industry? How do we accelerate digital transformation and how can financial organizations implement innovation? These questions and more were discussed this week as we hosted the Governor of the Bank of Israel, Prof. Amir Yaron, and the bank's senior management at IBM Israel. We presented Prof. Yaron and his team with global technological trends in the banking world from the IBM Research Institute. We demonstrated business scenarios that leverage new technologies and discussed governance, quality, accuracy, economic implications—and the immense potential—of the generative AI revolution. The generative AI revolution is going to create huge business impact, accelerating innovative financial solutions and client experience while increasing productivity and efficiency. We also talked about quantum computing, which can solve complex human problems but also presents challenges in the realms of information and cybersecurity. This revolution is closer than many think and is already useful, accessible, and usable today. Knowledge sharing and open discussions about opportunities and challenges are the foundation upon which innovation is built. I was pleased that the bank's management and we at IBM share a common vision of accelerating innovation in the Israeli economy in general—and the financial sector in particular. I would like to thank the Governor of the Bank of Israel, Prof. Amir Yaron, and the senior management of the bank for the insightful and inspiring meeting. Mazi Galor Uri Hayik

🚨 The Pager Explosions – A Wake-Up Call for Cyber Defence 🚨 Col. (res.) Dr. Oren Eytan, CEO of odix, warns in the PC article below, that the recent explosion of thousands of pagers used by Hezbollah operatives was not just a physical attack but a sophisticated cyber event. This attack shows how critical it is for organizations to prepare for cyberattacks that could target not just networks but critical infrastructure like traffic lights, hospitals, or power plants. Dr. Eytan emphasizes that the impact of such events—whether kinetic or digital—makes them cyberattacks, and organizations must act now. Protect your network, map your assets, and strengthen your defenses because the stakes have never been higher.

From our perspective at Joule Ventures, it is never a bad time to be investing in #Israel, so long as one remains highly disciplined from a valuation, sector, and stage standpoint. That being said, the current geopolitical volatility combined with an ongoing venture market reset are creating some of the best deployment conditions in Israel we've seen in the past 15 years. As we like to say, if Israeli founders are continuing to innovate, we're here to meet them as their first check financing partners -- in good times and tougher times. https://lnkd.in/eMnKG-DW

As a result of the war, the Israeli defense industry and defense-tech companies have been at the forefront. In a recent article he wrote for @Calcalist, @Ofir Gomeh @Capital Nature CEO explains how we can leverage significant investments made in defense industries to achieve environmental sustainability and overcome climate change. Dual-use technology refers to technologies that can be used for both military and civilian purposes, thereby maximizing the advantages of advanced technologies. A drone is a great example of dual-use technology – on one hand, it can be used for military surveillance, and on the other hand, it can also be used to monitor climate-related changes such as methane and other GHG emissions monitoring, weather patterns, etc. In the article, Ofir provided more examples of dual-use technologies, including satellite technologies and green transportation. Defense industries and Israeli defense-tech companies can play a central role in dual-use technology. Investing in dedicated bodies like Capital Nature can provide the necessary network and market access for these technologies. This can revolutionize both sectors and drive progress towards a safer and more sustainable future. #DualUseTechnology #Defensetech #ClimateCrisis

Most companies don't know how to calculate ROI on BCP, they just don't add in loss of business in case production goes down. Once you figure out losses, organizations realize that BCP isn't an insurance policy, it's just being there for your customers. #DataCenters #Israel #CloudServices #TechInfrastructure

Why Is a Well-Defined Service Agreement Crucial? A service agreement is more than just a formal document—it's a vital framework that defines the relationship between a provider and a client. Beyond outlining deliverables and timelines, one key aspect that should never be overlooked is intellectual property (IP) rights. Ensuring that the client retains ownership of the service fruits is essential for long-term protection and clarity. Here’s an overview of what a robust service agreement should include: 🔹 Parties' Details: Clear identification of the provider and the client, including names, addresses, and contact information. 🔹 Service Definition: A detailed description of the services to be provided, including deliverables, objectives, and ownership of the final results. 🔹 Intellectual Property Rights: Explicit clauses ensuring the client retains ownership of all project deliverables unless agreed otherwise. 🔹 Timelines: Clear start and end dates, with milestones if applicable. 🔹 Payment Terms: A breakdown of costs, payment methods, and deadlines. 🔹 Rights and Responsibilities: Responsibilities of both parties, including data sharing and collaboration requirements. 🔹 Confidentiality: Safeguards for sensitive information 🔹 Dispute Resolution: Mechanisms to resolve disagreements efficiently. Prioritizing intellectual property ownership within the agreement protects the supplier's fruits and results, contributions and proprietary processes, fosters mutual trust, and ensures smooth and sustainable collaboration.
