This location is shown only to members
ATTENTION: NEW ROOM AND EARLY START!!!
Boston's brightest and sharpest minds are meeting again this month to meet face to face with one of Israels most respected leaders. We are honored to be hosting Danny Yatom, who will share with us his thoughts and lessons from over 33 years of extensive, military, intelligence, political and private sector business leadership experience. From IDF, Mossad, Knesset, and Private companies, Danny has led through many of the challenges we face in our entrepreneurial lives (hopefully on a smaller scale). Danny will talk about his transition to the private sector and what he has carried through, and how it applies in business life.
After Danny's session, we'll have Igor Katsman present his awesome startup, that just won a finalist spot a the Mass Challenge in October.

The event as a whole was a good one. The startup seemed to be at a good stage to get feedback, whereas in previous presentations I haven't really known how to respond (though that may be because I simply didn't know enough about their area). Yatom is interesting in the startup setting mostly because he's an example of someone who is an entrepreneur because he had experience and contacts rather than because he was a 27 yr old who wants to win big and searches for an idea in that pursuit. -
Shahar LayaniVP of Professional Services, Cyber-ArkI liked the open discussion and Yatom's directness. Kudos for Gil and everyone who organized this meetup.

Oved YosfanR&D Manager, EMCWas interesting to learn about Danny Yatom in person, I wish he talked more about the business aspects and less of the middle east conflict 'You can get the man out of the middle east, but can't get the middle east out of the man'

Hillel BachrachInvestor, 20/20 HealthCare Partnerswas not crazy about his presentation especially the 2nd portion of his speech. would not blame him as much as the people who brought him in. as i saw, it was not a bunch of 20 years old kids, though his content was a. self promoting; b. to 20 year old kids who want to start new business...
