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.

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.

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.

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.
