About

I bridge the gap between Israeli innovation and Latin American operational reality. With over 30 years of experience scaling ventures across countries, I specialize in the 'missing link' of the startup journey: Operational Maturity. Whether it’s launching international subsidiaries for a tech giant or architecting the administrative framework for a Copa Libertadores Championship, I turn high-level vision into scalable, stable systems. How I add value to the Israeli Ecosystem: Market Entry & GTM: I provide 'Boots on the Ground' strategy for the Latin America region, including Brazil, navigating the legal, financial, and bureaucratic complexities that often stall growth. Systems & Stability: A specialist in SAP/ERP rollouts (Ex-BASF), I ensure that hyper-growth is supported by robust digital infrastructures, preventing 'scaling-frictions.' Cultural Alignment: As an Executive Coach to 5,000+ professionals, I align Israeli R&D leadership with local LatAm management teams to ensure a unified global culture. My Strategic Synergy Matrix: FINANCE: Regional restructuring & WHO-level project governance. TECH: SAP implementation & industrial logistics optimization. SCALING: From zero-to-one market entry & global talent transfers.
