In July, one of Paul’s most notable investments came to fruition when Israel-based Skycure, a leader in mobile threat defense, was acquired by Symantec, the world’s leading cyber security company. ADI SHARABANI, co-founder and CEO of Skycure (https://www.skycure.com/) will join Paul on the stage to share his incredible Silicon Valley “Cinderella Story”. Having only started Skycure 5 years ago before his big exit, we all could learn a thing or two from Adi!

Roger Rappoport, (http://www.procopio.com/attorneys/view/roger-c-rappoport) founder of Access Silicon Valley, and leader of Procopio's Emerging Companies and Venture Capital practice group, will moderate this Fireside Chat “Unleashed” discussing: the most efficient and effective ways to raise capital in today’s environment; the do's and don't's of fundraising; and, building and scaling a company and the culture of that company, from both the investors' and founder's perspective. Entrepreneurs will gain a practical perspective and insight into the fundraising process, what investors are looking for, how to reach them and, most importantly, what entrepreneurs need to do (and not do) to get a meeting and raise a successful round.

Additionally Roger will explore Skycure’s relationship with Foundation Capital, honing in on that unique bond between a VC and entrepreneur, as well as Adi’s journey, from his early days as an entrepreneur in Israel, to leading the security division at IBM, and becoming a co-founder of Skycure.

Join us for this interactive, audience-driven evening of insights from the perspectives of two of the most interesting and inspiring leaders who’ve made it big in Silicon Valley!

Don't miss PAUL HOLLAND & ADI SHARABNI unleashed!!

Paul, his wife Linda, and their three teenage daughters live in tah.mah.lah (http://www.tahmahlah.com/), their aggressively “green” house in Portola Valley.

ADI SHARABANI

SVP, Modern OS Security, Symantec Corporation

Adi Sharabani is the CEO and co-founder of Skycure, the leader in the Mobile Thread Defense field that was recently acquired by Symantec (July 2017). A world-renowned security expert with years of experience in enterprise software, Adi was formerly the leader of security for IBM software products. He came to IBM through the acquisition of Watchfire, a market leader in the field of application security, where Adi built and led its security and research group. Adi holds more than 25 patents in the security space, and his works, presentations and keynotes are regularly given the highest accolades at prestigious conferences. Adi earned a BSc in Mathematics and Physics from Tel Aviv University, and is a fellow in Professor Yuval’s workshop for science, technology and security. Committed to cyber security education, Adi has been a teacher and education advisor, playing a key role in the vision and implementation of the cyber defense curriculum for high school students in Israel majoring in cyber security.

After compiling decades of leadership in cyber security, Adi co-founded Skycure with the central idea of improving mobile security with a more proactive and predictive Mobile Threat Defense solution. In an interview for the RSA Conference blog, Adi notes, “Organizations [need] the ability to evolve to address the changing nature of [mobile security] attacks… for the most part, devices are simply running naked.” Adi embraces cyber security research and development, realizing that only through targeted research and continuous innovation can mobile security evolve into intelligent and highly active security for organizations.
