Everyone is talking about social media.
But what happens when the algorithm changes?

In this conversation, and debate the role of new media versus owned platforms, and why a company's website may still be one of its most valuable assets.

As founders invest more time into building audiences across platforms, the question becomes: where does long-term value actually live?

Most people spend hours perfecting their pitch.

says you should start by Googling yourself.

Before an investor, customer, or partner takes a meeting, they're probably searching your name. So make sure you know what they will find out about you before you even set foot in the pitch meeting.

The future of air mobility isn’t just about passengers.

At the Smart Mobility Summit in Tel Aviv, Yoel Israel spoke with Maxim Levy, COO of Dronery, about the company’s work operating aerial logistics services in Israel.

Dronery and Cando Drones are already flying drones for civilian use cases, including transporting medical supplies between hospitals and clinics, and moving critical equipment to locations that are difficult to reach by road. The company is also working with EHang’s air taxi platform, which has already completed test flights in Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, and Caesarea.

While passenger flights are still being tested, aerial logistics is already becoming a reality, and Israel is one of the places helping make it happen.

Why are global tech executives continuing to pour capital into Israel, even in times of crisis?

Former Meetup and Investopedia CEO Siegel joins Yoel Israel for a wide-ranging conversation about Israeli tech, aliyah, resilience, and why global executives continue investing in Israel even during wartime.

David shares the story behind Israel Tech Mission, an initiative bringing global tech and business leaders to Israel to experience the ecosystem firsthand. Since October 7, hundreds of executives, investors, and founders have joined the missions, leading to investments, partnerships, mentorships, and deeper ties to Israel’s startup ecosystem.

The conversation also explores what international leaders misunderstand about Israeli founders, why health tech may be Israel’s next major sector, and how Israeli culture shapes entrepreneurship differently from Silicon Valley.

Featuring David Siegel, former CEO of Meetup and Investopedia, founder of Israel Tech Mission, and professor at Tel Aviv University.

Remote work sounds simple until you realize some teammates might go years without ever meeting in person.

So how do companies actually build strong teams across different countries, cultures, and time zones?

Yaron Lavi of Deel sat down with Yoel Israel to talk about what makes remote teams actually work, from hiring people with the right mindset to why self discipline and energy matter just as much as technical skill.

One detail stood out: Deel usually looks for people who already have years of experience before going fully remote. Because working remotely all day, every day, is not for everyone.

As global teams become normal across tech, conversations like this are becoming a bigger part of how companies scale. Especially in Israel’s ecosystem, where teams are increasingly built across borders from day one.

At the Smart Mobility Summit in Tel Aviv, sat down with to talk about how quickly the global mobility landscape is changing.

Yaron pointed to COVID, supply chain shifts, and the rise of Chinese automakers as major turning points in the industry. What once felt like a niche presence has now become impossible to ignore, with Chinese companies competing directly with the biggest automotive brands on the global stage.

And Israel is feeling it too. For the first time, the country’s best-selling car is now Chinese.

At the Smart Mobility Summit in Tel Aviv, spoke with of about what it takes to build autonomous driving technology that can actually scale.

“It’s the combination of reach and monetization that matters.”

Innoviz also gave a live demo on the summit floor, where their LiDAR system was able to detect Yoel standing in the crowd, showing how these systems map and identify objects in real time.

As autonomous vehicles move closer to mainstream deployment, Israeli companies like Innoviz are building the perception systems helping cars understand the world around them.

Four wheels usually mean stability. Two wheels usually mean agility. MIA Dynamics is trying to do both at the same time.

At the Smart Mobility Summit in Tel Aviv, Yoel Israel spoke with Yoshi Bluth of MIA Dynamics about the company’s autonomous robotic systems and the engineering challenge behind making vehicles adapt to terrain in real time.

Yoshi explained that while AI plays a role, the foundation is deep engineering, something that feels very connected to the Israeli tech ecosystem and the kind of mobility problems companies here are taking on.

One of the more fascinating things coming out of the summit floor this year.
