@chamath started it, and now it's a mega trend. 67 #SPACs in 2020 that got ~$20 billion. I wonder when we'll see this getting adopted in #Israel and how it will affect the local investments.

Exactly a year ago I predicted that the number of #Israeli #Unicorns will see a slow-down. Unfortunately, I was right, BUT STILL, in this #COVID #Year, there are 15(!) new Israeli Unicorns & the sum value is super impressive!

In some #Israeli #tech #innovation programs, the gov. funding reaches 85% w/o taking equity. Yes, there're limitations, mostly IP related, but do you know of a similar program worldwide that gives investors $5.67 for every $1? That’s #investment #leverage

@PeterSinger @PeterSinger isn't setting the argument on “We can begin with the presumption that it is wrong to take human life”, can also be the ethical justification for killing Suleimani, in order to protect the lives of those he is publicly declaring to harm?

In 2019, Israel doubled number of unicorns. Unfortunately, I don’t think in 2020 it will happen.

Looks like Cato Networks, now with the support of Lightspeed Venture Partners and additional $55M in the bank are on the right path to become the next #israeli #cybersecuirty #unicorn.
Best of luck Yoni Cheifetz!

Many businesses should take on this new year resolution: "Product success is not just about having a good product, but also having the right business model(s)."

Sometimes a #blockchain is just a blockchain... :
"It’s blockchain, but it’s closed off, hidden from public view, and centralized, in a bank."
