Today's new anti-ageing formula is derived from a fly's wing! CEO of Smart Resilin Dr. Gilad Lando and Co-Founder Prof. Oded Shoseyov from The Hebrew University of Jerusalem explain the technology behind the beauty industry's newest addition to anti-ageing properties. Resilin, whose name derives from resilience, is a material from nature. The elasticity of the protein is making strides in consumer products - specifically in beauty products that fight against aging of skin.

Last night was a fun evening hosted by the Tel Aviv Arts Council at Shenkar - Engineering. Design. Art. An Evening Celebrating Art, Design, Fashion & Engineering A shoutout to Ari Fruchter and Tel Aviv International Salon for always organizing amazing culture events such as the one last night   The event aimed to showcase the work of Israel's top young creators in art, design, fashion, and engineering. The president of Shenkar, Sheizaf Rafaeli, opened the event with a talk about the institution's impact and future, and the talk was followed by guided tours of Shenkar’s galleries featuring the works from students and alumni Though I have come full circle, and am leaning into my creative side, most of my focus is on words, less on images, so it was nice to get inspired by the art on display during the evening My initial thoughts/takeaways: I still believe that art is one of the highest forms of communication and intellect, as it touches a very human part of us that we don’t always logically access. Which is why good art (whether it be music, writing, visual, etc.) makes us feel strong emotions I didn’t realize how much the design program at Shenkar was involved in the war effort… especially with the work in creating prosthetic limbs. I can’t imagine an art school of any kind in the US or Western Europe being involved (even in humanitarian work) with a military. But Israel is a unique place like that, and the works on display certainly had a dark edge to them (this was the case even before Oct 7th, but probably even darker since then) When the president of the college spoke, he mentioned that since Oct 7th, the work from this cohort has received the most praise (the current cohort started the program during the pandemic), and so everyone who is a creative understands, pain is a real driver of creativity. With the creative process being cathartic, so his statement was not surprising, but shows that we can create beauty from the ugliness of suffering I will always have a place in my heart for Israeli fashion, as I produced an Israeli fashion show years ago… and while it was amazing, I would not have wished that experience on anyone. That experience, in working with Israeli fashion types, was having to deal with (while very talented), a unique combination of desperation and arrogance… a combination I choose these days to avoid Fashion is fun, but not for me 😉 Also, a shoutout to Odem Alagem אודם 🦪 for the amazing content and energy, and to Viktoria Kanar, whose startup Re-Fresh Global is disrupting the textile industry through its ground-breaking technology which transforms textile waste into new raw materials Art always serves as a way to build community around a shared experience. Though everyone views the same piece of art, they may have different interpretations of what they are seeing… and it has inspired me to check out some of the other art museums, galleries, and activations #thursdaythoughts #israelinnovation #israelunderfire

Israel is and continue to be a global leader in #innovation and #technology. "Robotics could be 'the next wave of #AI,' or at least that is the recent projection given by Jensen Huang , the CEO of NVIDIA . He spoke at a conference in Taiwan about the next frontier of AI and specifically mentioned humanoid robots and self-driving cars." "Israel is a hub for robotics tech companies, with 170 companies pioneering the development of robots in diverse sector" according to Startup Nation Central. As mapped by its Startup Nation Finder, "the sector distribution shows that 33% of the Robotics companies address Industrial Technologies. 23% of robotics companies work in Agrifood Tech. Health Tech represents 19% of the companies; Aerospace and Defense – 9%." * Thanks to Guy B. for his post about this in Italian. #startups

https://lnkd.in/d2cSeV-J An Israeli startup is on a mission to bring the benefit of natural sunlight indoors into our homes, workplaces and even hospitals. Solight addresses the issue of lack of sunlight in indoor spaces by creating a solar lighting system that takes the natural light of the morning and afternoon hours and channels it into desired spaces, providing health benefits to those stuck inside and cutting exposure to artificial light. “We understood that energy saving is just the tip of the iceberg,” co-founder and CTO Ofer Becker tells NoCamels. “In monetary terms, all the experts agree that the wellness benefits are probably around 50 times more valuable than the energy savings.” “This has multiple effects on sleep quality and concentration on bone growth [especially] in elderly people. Sunlight has great benefits for recovery of patients in hospitals, usually speeding up recovery by 30% or more." “There’s a general acceptance that sunlight is just as crucial to human health as air quality, food and clean water.” #Sunlight #energysaving #sustainability #israelinnovation #israelitech #patent #Wellness #sunlightenergy #sunlightexposure #sunshine https://lnkd.in/d2cSeV-J

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?

Amnon Shashua, the founder and CEO of Mobileye and a computer science professor at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, has an eye for complicated problems that he believes can be solved with AI and that AI itself can be fixed to become more reliable. On the sidelines of building and running his self-driving car technology company—which he took public, then sold to Intel, then spun out again—he’s been hatching a number of other ideas. Check it out here: https://tcrn.ch/4hi2k12 #ComputerScience #Tech #AI

“Hugsy’s Special Visit to Nahariya” the Client: T.L.M ("Telem") Institute - an Israeli nationwide network of mental health clinics for kids, teens and adults. It is quite an unusual experience for us at Secret Sauce to be working on a project that is so directly entwined with current events and hardships. Most of our work in the studio is usually creating marketing and advertising related materials, for high tech companies and other commercial bodies. In these challenging times T.L.M is providing therapy and mental support to kids who live in dangerous areas under risk. Our mission was to create, in a very (very) short amount of time, an informative video that shares details about this project for kids and encourages people to sign up. SO, the video was ready in a record time of 4 work days (!).  And what happened, you ask? The results: within hours from opening the registration, the list was full for 4 months ahead! And they had to close it at that time. It was moving and rewarding to work with T.L.M. We just hope for better days for everyone. #AnimationVideo #2DAnimation

CASE STORY - PART II ------- We are on with the second part of story about our implementation to Tel Aviv Medical Center - T.A.M.C Ltd. This time it's more detailed, and tells about how we moved this medical center from 6 systems to one. All-in-one is one of the basic concepts of our software. We really thing, that using multiple solutions (sometimes over 30) only make your clinic way less efficient. If you have a software mess in your medical center or chain of clinics - that one is for you 😊 https://lnkd.in/eQM-tNK8

The Yashar Behzadi and Greg Edwards slogan is resonating with our mission and vision a lot: "Our kids will be future leaders, researchers, scientists, problem-solvers, engineers. They will be asked to solve complex, interrelated, completely novel problems. As adults, we should train our kids to ask good questions, to think critically, to reason well, to be confident but open-minded. What they won’t need is obedience, meekness — the old tools of control used by the state should be left in the past."

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
