"AR computing!" Say goodbye to traditional laptops. An Israeli entrepreneur has innovated a technology that bids farewell to our traditional laptops. Tamir Berliner- founder of Sightful and the innovator behind the Spacetop G1! What is the Spacetop G1? Spatial computer that seamlessly integrates the functionality of a laptop with the capabilities Of Augmented Reality (AR). A 100-inch virtual workspace replaces the need for a physical screen. Spacetop G1 adapts to various environments, whether at home, in the office, or on the go. This represents a step forward in integrating AR technologies with daily tasks. Spatial with AR transforms how we interact with digital content, personally and professionally. The real test will be in its execution. The usability of the AR interface, the battery life, the comfort of AR glasses, etc., are crucial. I believe Sightful has managed to address these practical concerns effectively. And I am awaiting the official release in india. Congrats to Tamir Berliner and the team for their bold move and fantastic innovation. The Spacetop G1 is an evolution in how we think about personal computing.

In today’s fast-paced and uncertain environment, accessing top tech talent often means expanding internationally. At COMMIT Offshore, with 200+ team members across four global centers, I’ve found that thriving in global hiring depends on two main factors: 🔑 Cultural Compatibility: Embracing cultural diversity is key. For instance, Israel’s direct style can differ greatly from the more reserved approach of Ukrainian, Armenian professionals. 🤝 Emphasis on Soft Skills: Technical expertise is critical, but it’s the adaptability, communication, and teamwork skills that truly bind a team. Identifying and understanding personality types can transform team dynamics: 🔍 The Analyst – Detail-oriented, thorough, and structured. Perfect for roles that need data-driven decisions and precision. ✅ The Task-Oriented – Mission-focused, efficient, and punctual. Ideal for tasks with tight deadlines and clear objectives. 🎤 The Promoter – Charismatic and engaging, they light up the room. Great fit for Sales and Marketing! 🤝 The Supporter – Calm, empathetic, and reliable. Perfect for roles in care-giving and customer support. Creating successful international teams goes beyond recruitment—it's about building a shared culture that resonates globally.

Please watch this video if you cherish life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. The POTUS seems to have been hijacked not only by dementia, but also by Islamism, which is sweeping the free world like wildfire. As if 9/11 wasn’t enough. As if Oct 7 wasn’t enough. As if hijacking higher education and our economies in the free world wasn’t enough. It’s time for civil people to take back control and defeat Islamism. The only party that offers a way out right now are the Republicans as seen in this video, along with the Israelis who are fighting this evil while sacrificing their brightest in the process. Please consider making a donation to the speakers in this video, to Israeli soldiers at the IDF, and most importantly - speak up! Sitting quietly on the sidelines as the foundations of the civil world are shaken by Islamism (take 2, after WW2... Islamism is the ideology that inspired German National Socialism, and the one that denies it ever happened while disseminating Mein Kampf in Islamist school systems) is the worst we all could do. If you’re a Muslim that fled Islamism to live in democracies like the U.S. or Israel, you especially are indebted to uphold the values of life, freedom, and the pursuit of happiness. If you consider yourself a liberal, if you’re gay - you especially are indebted to uphold the values of life, freedom, and the pursuit of happiness - you saw what it’s like under German National Socialism - which is today’s Progressivism, brainwashed by Islamism. Let’s fight and reject this horrific evil of Islamism together. There is no other way.

Summarizing DefenseTech Summit 2024 🛡️ It’s truly inspiring to witness the incredible momentum in the DefenseTech space, with over 1,000 participants from Israel and abroad. The event brought together leading global VCs, corporates, and defense bodies, showcasing the growing interest in this domain. We at Fresh Fund are honored to be one of the sponsors and partners of this important summit. We firmly believe Israel is uniquely positioned to become a global hub for impactful startups that not only emerge but thrive in this dynamic field. Our partner, Naor Caspi, participated in a fascinating panel alongside Nimrod Cohen (Tau Ventures), Alex Shmulovich (Viola Ventures), and Dorin Baniel (NightDragon). The discussion revolved around the opportunities and challenges for early-stage startups in DefenseTech and why this sector holds such significant promise for Israeli entrepreneurs. We’re already active in this space, with five investments in startups like R2 Wireless, Shifters AI Robotics, Tip&Cue, and two additional stealth ventures. And we’re eager to invest in more. DefenseTech founders inspire us—they’re purpose-driven, highly talented, and recognize the opportunity to build large businesses with meaningful impact. If you are building something in this space, reach us out. Congrats to the organizers for such an incredible event.

This article in Mekomit highlights how easy it is for people to get lost in their daily routines, prioritizing their own comfort and avoiding tough questions. Meanwhile, their taxes and silence help enable horrors like starvation, torture, and genocide. It’s a stark reminder that indifference isn’t neutral. It has consequences. We must choose to stay aware and act against such injustices.

Definitely one of the best teams I’ve met and worked with in the local tech scene. Run:ai ✨ But a few more reasons why this acquisition is awesome. 1. Nvidia appreciates us & keeps on doubling-down on the Israeli startup ecosystem. After the huge success with Mellanox the Giant is here to stay. That’s great. Again - I’d say that a big part of it belongs to Eyal Waldman. 2. Israel will get stronger, or at least keep on track within the race to AI. 3. Timing: especially now. When Israel is threatened and facing different attacks, and some big challenges. While many of us are not at our best (to say the least) and fight for our future - Nvidia knows what great innovation we have here, how great the teams are - and closing such a deal. 4. Just like many other great things we’ve seen recently, also this innovation starts with science. Education is important! 5. A small reason to smile and feel proud of our tech industry. Happy news. Congratulations Omri Geller Ronen Dar Yael Dor Rona Segev … 🤍 #bringthembacknow

There is something very special about monday.com, ironSource, Yotpo, Lemonade, Fiverr, Playtika, and the other B2B startups that were founded in the early 2000s. They built the playbook that the current Israeli startup ecosystem stands on. I would love to interview these founders: Eran Zinman & Roy Mann CEO monday.com Tomer Tagrin. CEO Yotpo Tomer Bar-Zeev CEO ironSource Micha Kaufman ceo Fiverr Daniel Schreiber CEO Lemonade Or any founders that built from the early 2000s and still building. If someone can make an intro or ask them directly to come on the Founder StorieZ Podcast I would greatly appreciate it 🙏
