Have you ever experienced hidden costs in cross border payments? We're pretty sure the answer is yes! Unpredictability is a common weak spot in the payments industry, according to Aviv Amar from our Business Development team. At Neema - Better Than a Bank, we believe in full transparency. Here's what that means for our clients: Fixed Exchange Rates: Many transfer methods determine the FX rate based on when funds are received by the beneficiary, exposing you to currency fluctuations, especially in cases of prolonged transfer times. At Neema, the exchange rate is set at the time of sending. No surprises, no currency risk. No Hidden Fees: With other services, you might face additional deductions from beneficiary banks or correspondent banks. With Neema, what you send is what your recipient receives. No unexpected costs or deductions. Transparency is more than just clarity—it's about empowering you to make informed decisions and ensuring your money reaches its destination as intended. Experience clarity and confidence with every transfer. DM us to schedule a meeting and discover how Neema can optimize your international payments. 🌐 https://lnkd.in/dFFSW5Qz #Transparency #HiddenCosts #FXrate #fintech #crossborderpayments

What happens when your payment system becomes the target? Last week, a major DDoS attack temporarily disrupted credit card payments across Israel by targeting the Hyp clearing company, affecting popular services like Wolt, Gett, and Rav Kav transit. Reportedly linked to an Iran-based group, this is the second similar attack in two weeks and highlights an increase in threats against essential financial infrastructure. With cyber incidents doubling over the last year, this serves as a reminder that cybersecurity is essential for any business handling sensitive data or transactions. Safeguarding digital infrastructure is now a top priority for resilience against these growing risks. #Cybersecurity #Fintech #DigitalSafety #DDoS #CyberThreats ----------------------- Tel-Arm can help you protect your ecommerce from all kinds of digital threats including DDOS and more.

This measure, part of the broader "National Infrastructure Bill" enacted a year ago to close Israel's major infrastructure gap, is HUGE. It aims to overcome the "Utility Coordination" challenge, notoriously the weakest link in every project life cycle — key to delivering Israel's mega-projects on time over the next decade and essential for sustaining rapid economic growth. Why is this so crucial? - Israel's productivity gap (GDP per hour worked) is the biggest challenge to realizing its economic growth potential. - Alongside the demographic challenge, aggressively addressing the "Infrastructure Gap" is a top priority. - Approximately 25% of the productivity gap is attributed to infrastructure deficiencies in transportation, particularly mass transit. - Over the next 10-15 years, Israel will invest more than NIS 0.5 trillion in capital projects for Transportation and Energy (1.5-2% increase in investment of GDP annually). Streamlining projects = closing the "infrastructure gap" faster = GROWTH. Adi Hachmon Iliya Katz Yuval Avigdor Dana Dover Itzik Daniel Esti Feldman

When we founded Revealense three years ago, our work seemed like something out of science fiction. Our efforts are rooted in science, mathematics, optics, and psychology, yet our core is focused on understanding human behavior that involves responsible AI methodology. One of the critical points in our research is how to allow a machine to understand humans better than humans. This understanding plays a crucial role in workplace dynamics, healthcare, and defense and security while also addressing the emerging threat landscape shaped by generative AI and its impact on cyber-attack surfaces. https://lnkd.in/dtPr4qBU

Despite the war-induced economic strain, Israeli high-tech is proving unstoppable. 🚀 Major funding rounds are back, and as Rona Segev, Co-Founder & Managing Partner at TLV Partners, shares: “It’s a clear trend shift compared to Q2 this year, with many rounds yet to be announced. Since the beginning of the year, we’ve had 12 Series A and B rounds—something we didn’t see in 2023. I’m unsure we’ll reach the 2021 highs, but optimism is certainly justified.” The resilience and momentum in Israel’s tech scene are undeniable.

🎉 Celebrating 5 Years at Ogen! 🎉 These days, I am proud to mark five incredible years with Ogen. During this time, I've had the privilege of being part of our organization’s rapid growth and its pivotal role in addressing two major crises in Israel - the Covid-19 pandemic and the ongoing war. Here are some key achievements we've accomplished together: Major Technology Breakthroughs: From manual paperwork in 2019, we have undergone an impressive digital transformation. Launched online loan requests, integrated open banking, connected with Israel's credit bureau, implemented digital underwriting, and established a full omni-channel experience. Enhanced our cyber-security platform, developed an AML system, integrated a KYC system, and completed many more technology projects. Unique Financial Innovation: Transitioned from a donation-based non-profit to an innovative financial organization. Secured credit from banks, raised funds from provident and pension funds, attracted deposits from impact investors, and are now exploring the issuance of commercial papers. Substantial M&A Activities: Merged Keren Shemesh into our group. Established Spark IL and Ment-Or in collaboration with the Jewish Agency. Despite numerous challenges, all three projects are now successful and have made a significant impact in Israel. Reflecting on these past five years at Ogen, I feel immense satisfaction and pride in our collective achievements. Here's to continued growth and impact in the years ahead! 🚀 #Anniversary #Milestone #Proud #Ogen #Innovation #Technology #Finance #Impact

🌟 When You Truly Create an Impact 🌟 A few months ago, we recognized the need to define and invest in the tech lead role, understanding that our tech leads are the driving force behind our technical teams. So, what exactly is the tech lead role? While it may vary from company to company or even team to team, it is clear that this role requires a blend of technical expertise and leadership skills. The Manager’s Path: A Guide for Tech Leaders offers an insightful chapter on this, emphasizing that being a tech lead involves more than technical know-how. It’s about navigating interpersonal dynamics, making strategic decisions, and mentoring team members. These complexities guided us in creating a program that addresses the multifaceted nature of the tech lead role. The Process of Creating an Impactful Program: 🤝 Collaboration between P&C Partner and Learning: This is where it all started - good communication and a strong working relationship between Tal Lev, my partner in crime, and myself. 🔍 Identify Your Sponsors: Key sponsorship from leadership was crucial in driving the program forward and ensuring alignment with our strategic goals. Doron Cyngiser Ori Danus, thank you for leading this program and putting your heart into it! 🗣️ Understanding Needs and Challenges: Through preparation meetings with managers and tech leads, we gained valuable insights into their unique needs and challenges, shaping the foundation of our program. 📋 Creating a Clear Role Guide and Skill Taxonomy: We developed a clear role guide and skill taxonomy to set precise expectations and define the competencies required for tech leads to excel. 📢 Involving Management: Involving management ensured that our objectives were aligned with the broader mission of the organization, maximizing the program’s impact. 🤝 Choosing the Right Vendor: Our vendor partner, Jetpacks Consulting (Omri Cohen and Matan Kubovsky), played an instrumental role in shaping and executing the program, bringing invaluable expertise and insights. 🌟 The Power of a Group: Group sessions encouraged collaboration and knowledge sharing, building a strong support network among our tech leads. 🔄 Creating a Continuous Support System: Create and establish a continuous support system to ensure ongoing development and support for our tech leads. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who contributed to this journey. Ido Stern Rami Tzafrir Gali Cohen Nissan

“Hey, I'm Romi, and after working in senior positions at some big companies, I joined Cellebrite as the company's Treasurer. Nowadays, I handle hundreds of millions of dollars invested in Israel and around the world.   It all kicked off four months before Cellebrite went public. The pressure was intense, especially when you're relatively new and responsible for all the company's cash and investments. Sure, in the past, I've led some significant acquisitions and financing deals, but an IPO is something I have always wanted to do but never got the chance to do.   Anyone who knows me knows that when there's a challenge, I'm the first to tackle it. After a few crazy months of non-stop work, we finally went public. Some might think that's where the challenge ends, but it's just the start.   Working alongside the finance team, we dealt with dividends, built investment portfolios, and expanded banking activities - but let's save that for another post. Areas like cash flows, currency risks, and corporate insurance became more critical than ever and made these last three years incredibly satisfying. You could say each day brings something new - but honestly, even outside of work, there's plenty that brings a smile to my face.   Coming home daily to Moran, Shon, and Nili, my greatest joys, is a highlight. I also lead the school's parent committee, coordinate a group of hundreds of mothers in our neighborhood, run social programs for Holocaust survivors, and advocate for environmental quality. I just finished a Handywomen course, too. Now, looking back - what a wild three years it's been!"   Romi is also one of the Israeli Corporate Treasury Forum founders. Romi Blank Ben-ami
