Tel-aviv has improved its position among the top startup ecosystems worldwide according to Startup Genome's 2024 report (https://lnkd.in/dN3aUa_h). What a powerful evidence of Israeli startup and innovation environment's resilience and the unshaken trust of the global investor community. The Israeli high-tech sector remains to be the engine of the nation’s economy, accounting for 18% of GDP, 48% of exports, and 11% of workforce. At Tachles VC we are proud we can back the next generation of cyber, cloud and infrastructure AI Israeli-born start-ups. Karel Tušek, Sivan Kanev, Boris Chovnik, Robin Bienfait

The Israeli high-tech sector is strong and will emerge even stronger after the crisis. Institutional investors in Israel must, however, invest more to help the industry. Over the past decade, the high-tech market has proven to be highly profitable, evidenced by numerous mergers and acquisitions. High-tech must be a significant component of investment portfolios. Our role is to revitalize the market. Without the support of institutional investors, it will be challenging to attract foreign investors. Yesterday, I was privileged to speak on the Alternative Investments panel moderated by Roee Bergman from Calcalist כלכליסט at the Future Investments 2024 conference by Calcalist and Migdal Group. I want to extend my gratitude to my fellow panelists: Keren Kalifa, CEO of G City Israel; Amir Hessel, Founding Partner of Arbel Fund; Dr. Navot Bar, CEO of Keystone Reit; and Mor Assia, Co-Founder and Partner at iAngels, for an inspiring discussion. #HighTech #Investment #Israel #InstitutionalInvestors #Innovation

3 main challenges that startups face: 1. Laying the groundwork for expansion into the American market. 2. Establishing a robust sales framework. 3. Financing, financing, financing. Ten startups who participated in the Launchpad program (cycle 7!) will receive training and mentoring on these points from Deloitte teams in Israel and the USA. Stay tuned for the names of the companies (you'll hear more about them soon) - found in the links we've shared here: Deloitte Launchpad Program #DeloitteLaunchpad #StartUp #BusinessGrowth #AmericanMarket #Financing

Over the past decade, I have reviewed over 1,000 cv's in search for the best team members to join our team. I see a lot of people in Israel in need of jobs these days so sharing some tips from my experience as a manager and Organizational Psychologist that I hope can be helpful. If you have any questions or additional insights, please feel free to comment below or pm me. I divided the job-seeking journey into 4 stages: 1. Self-reflection 2. CV building 3. Networking 4. “Dating” your future boss In this post I will cover some pointers for the first 3 stages. Next post will cover pointers for the last stage. *Self-reflection* 1. Self-reflection and understanding what you are good at and what you are passionate about. 2. Who are you - Need to be able to answer this in 2-3 lines at the top of the CV. Are you a manager and looking to be in a leadership role or more of a hands-on executive? Is your focus marketing/sales/coding/project management? Pro tip: Ask your friends to be honest with you and share the value they see you bring. It will crystalize your own view as well. *CV and LinkedIn profile* 1. CV building - how does your future boss know you are great at what you do? What success and impact did you have that you can articulate with numbers? 2. The design is great. But the most important is the content. Make sure clear description in the header what you do and keep it short, with bullet points and a 1-pager. Make sure no mistakes. If there is even 1 typo, it is a no-go. 3. Passion talks. Years ago I hired a young man with very little experience because he came with great passion and told me how he taught himself code at age 11. See how you can find that story that highlights your greatness. *Networking* 1. Networking and asking friends for an intro or to put in a good word. Identify 10 people you will have coffee with to brainstorm your career. Some will give you great advice. Others will give you a good lead. 2. Don't only think about networking with those who can give you the job today but rather with those who know people that can help you. 3. The best way to build trust is to show your work in action. I once hired someone because he reached out and explained to me in a loom video why one of my client websites stinked and how that can be fixed. He didn't tell me what he does but showed me. What tips have you found as a manager that you would give future employees?

📍 Yesterday, I attended the 𝑴𝒂𝒓𝒌𝒆𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑺𝒖𝒄𝒄𝒆𝒔𝒔 𝑺𝒕𝒐𝒓𝒊𝒆𝒔 event hosted by Inspired Marketing Digital Agency for B2B Tech. I had the pleasure to meet and chat with professionals like Zohar (Zoe) Haimovitch 🎗, Jordan Snapper, Dasha Rein Dubinsky 🎗️, Yarden Kroitoru and more. 🤔 What inspired me most was... those marketing leaders. Their insights highlighted the unique challenges we face as marketers today. And while success depends on clear strategies and well-thought-out plans, the fast-paced startup environment, especially in our local Israeli realm, is often expected to be "quick and dirty". Yet, even the "quickest and dirtiest" tactical campaigns require a solid foundation that includes a goal, a strategy, a plan, and a strong marketing leader that can lead through this 💪 🎨 The marketing teams' rich scope of responsibilities and challenges demands agility, creativity, and exceptional business understanding. 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝒎𝒂𝒊𝒏 𝒄𝒉𝒂𝒍𝒍𝒆𝒏𝒈𝒆𝒔 speakers raised were about building a pipeline with limited budgets, creating content strategies that work in a content-driven world, the social media engagement challenge, and how to build a good and iterative GTM strategies. 👏 Thanks Daniela Morein Bar and the Intel Ignite for the lovely event. #marketing #leadership

Among the 2,337 founders from the random sample of 1,027 US-based VC-backed companies, 345 did so. Undergraduates from the Israel Institute of Technology include 26 unicorn founders and 1 random sample founder. Dividing one on the other, and correcting for the different number of unicorn founders and random sample founders, the odds ratio is 21.      #stanford #stanfordgsb #venturecapital #startups #innovation #technology

Everyone is tired of fluff. But how do you get rid of it for good? Last week, I was invited to speak to the students of the startup MBA program at the Technion - Israel Institute of Technology. Here’s the 3-step exercise I shared with them on cutting out fluff: 1. Start with 50 words to describe your startup. 2. Reduce it down to 10 and as you do so, identify the fluffiest statements—the ones that don't contribute value, cause confusion and where the company description still makes perfect sense without them. 3. Once you hit 10 words, reverse the process and go back up to 50, adding in more clarifying and descriptive words. To leave out the fluff, you first have to be aware of the fluff in the first place. By first reducing and then adding back in - founders have a much easier time identifying where words act more as fillers, and where they are absolutely crucial to the meaning and message. Hope this helps.
