Solar Drone Ltd would like to announce that it has been made public on the Israeli Stock Exchange via merger with BladeRanger (TLV: BLRN). This Merger will enable both companies to bring forth each of their unique developments to bring about the next generation of cleaning solutions for optimizing solar fields outputs and increasing their efficiency. BladeRanger (TLV: BLRN) has developed an AI-based solution that is capable of detecting the most intricate malfunctions and inefficiencies, thus improving solar fields outputs, whilst Solar Drone Ltd has developed a unique payload which can be mounted on DJI spray drones and uses high pressurized water mixed with solvents in order to remove debris and dust from the solar panels. Combined, these two solutions deliver tremendous value through increasing electricity outputs and optimizing energy yields in solar fields in any topography, benefitting the environment and bringing costs down. Other use cases include the cleaning of glass surfaces, exterior buildings surfaces, and any other hard-to-access locations. This strategic move aligns with our commitment to sustainable and cost-effective energy solutions. Increased energy production from clean panels translates to a positive impact on the environment and a reduction in operational costs. We are proud to have garnered the support of prominent investors like Jonathan Rubini (Alaska) and Israeli singer/songwriter Omer Adam. We invite you to join us as we redefine clean energy solutions.

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

Israeli tech is at a crossroads On the one hand, we see a surge in tech, particularly with AI. On the other hand, we're dealing with a decrease in economic activity and a potential shift in the job market While it's true that the current situation in the country has led to a decrease in economic activity, we must also consider the impact of AI on the job market. Companies may be using the current economic climate as a cover to transition to AI-driven operations, a move that isn't typically popular… The rapid development of AI, such as OpenAI's GPT-3, suggests that we may see a big shift in the job market sooner than anticipated. While this is great for efficiency, it also raises concerns about job security, and the future of jobs Furthermore, the job market, especially in the tech sector, is becoming increasingly competitive There are fewer jobs than there are people looking for work. This issue is particularly pronounced in the Haredi community, where job opportunities are even scarcer. The community faces additional challenges, including bias and a lack of experience. Most training programs today don't offer job experience or placement, leaving individuals to navigate the job market on their own Given these circumstances, #entrepreneurship emerges as a viable path… knowing how to run a business and possessing skills that can't be easily replicated by AI can be a real advantage Along with those challenges, another major question is… is Israel a conducive environment for setting up a business?   The Israeli government's stance towards businesses, particularly #startups, plays a big role in shaping the country's economic landscape. High taxes and stringent regulations can deter entrepreneurs, pushing them to relocate their businesses to countries like the US This trend is worrying… as startups and new businesses are the key drivers of economic growth. A decrease in the number of companies not only reduces job opportunities but also hampers growth The government's role in fostering a supportive environment for businesses cannot be overstated Initiatives to ease regulations, provide tax cuts, and offer support can significantly enhance the business landscape, encouraging entrepreneurs to establish and grow their businesses in Israel While it's true that thriving businesses may not always equate to more jobs, particularly because of #AI, they do contribute to economic growth. The profits generated by these businesses can be reinvested into the economy, catalyzing further growth The next few years in this country are about striking a balance between embracing tech, entrepreneurship, and ensuring job security, as well as creating an environment conducive for building businesses What are your thoughts on this?

🚨 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.

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?

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

Github spark - is a new a platform to create apps with LLM models. This is interesting as it shows how infrastructure companies like Microsoft that has the edge with Azure, Github, OpenAI can connect the dots to make user experience more seamless and create revenue in their ecosystems. While this move is great for new apps and new users. For enterprises with legacy code, using local IDE like cursor make more sense IMO. Amazing stuff is happening in software development. Exited to see how it will unfold in the enterprises development. Thanks for sharing Amitay Boneh 🤘

Architectural Signature: The Towers Redesigning Urban Space Modern architecture is much more than just designing buildings—it is a powerful tool for urban renewal and the reconfiguration of public space. Recently, we have witnessed a wave of groundbreaking projects across Israel that combine innovative design with a broad understanding of community and environmental needs. Ir Olam District, Jerusalem How do you create a Jerusalem icon that bridges diverse audiences and uses while rising on the historic Jerusalem flour mill site? Ir Olam District, designed by Avner Yashar Architects, is an iconic project whose construction recently began. The ISA Group sought to create a project with an international flavor, diverse functions, and appeal to a wide range of target audiences. Its unique design and location between the neighborhoods of Beit HaKerem, Kiryat Moshe, and Givat Shaul suggest it will become a prominent gateway to the city. Proximity to the new Route 16 and many planned functions—office spaces, retail, residential towers, and open areas—will contribute to its significance. Construction began under Denya Cebus, selected by ISA Group, founded by entrepreneurs Akiva Zuravin and Shalom Griba. How significant will the district be, and how will it impact its surroundings? The project’s scale provides some answers: 40,000 sqm of office space, 11,000 sqm of retail space (including entertainment and dining areas), a community center, school, conference hall, and 300 luxury residential units across three towers for purchase or long-term rental. The complex will have around 1,000 parking spaces across four levels, as well as 2.5 acres of open green spaces surrounding the commercial area and on the green bridge roof. Retail spaces of about 11,000 square meters will be available for lease, ranging from 100 to 2,000 square meters in shell condition. The 40,000 square meters of office space will be spread over two buildings, including a 28-story tower and a 7-story structure, with units available for lease or purchase starting at 700 sqm. According to architect Avner Yashar, designer of the Ir Olam Project for ISA Group, "The project is expected to create a dramatic transformation both locally and beyond. Even before construction, the area underwent planning changes, particularly regarding transportation, as decided by the regional committee and municipality. This is the first mixed-use development in the area, significantly impacting the neighborhood. The combination of employment, residential spaces, a school, and other public and commercial uses is new to the area and will inspire future projects to match its level and quality. This applies to the integrated construction style—tall office and residential buildings up to 30 stories and lower public buildings, utilizing the highest-quality finishing materials." https://lnkd.in/e-DaXcGA

Israel is a giant playground if you can perceive it as such. One of my adventures in the corridors of Israeli academia (it’s a comedy. They all are) involved an esoteric investigation into a new class of numbers. There was a notion that there is a negative zero and a positive zero, and that it is somehow useful. I came in to the lab, understood what is required, and wrote the code that produces negative and positive zeros, and queries that perform statistical analysis on the outputs, etc, etc, etc. Negative zeros, positive zeros, perhaps useless in any case aside from slippage calculation in zero-ish trade thresholds. In any case, it’s unfeasible, due to Binance fees. https://lnkd.in/dfjKhTND

As we navigate the ongoing war and achieve significant milestones, we confront the side effects it creates for the entire nation, including the tech industry. One significant side effect is the disruption of flights, impacting critical operations across various sectors. Investor Michael Eisenberg highlighted the urgent need for action to support the Israeli tech sector, as companies face significant challenges due to their dependence on flights for essential operations and growth. Our Managing Partner, Moran Chamsi, echoed these concerns, emphasizing the importance of government intervention to keep Israeli tech connected to the global market, while presenting practical solutions the government can implement immediately.
