Another milestone for Israeli cybersecurity and YL Ventures: Aim Security, led by founders Matan G. and Adir Gruss, has been acquired by Cato Networks! From their $10M seed round in 2023 through their $18M Series A, we had the privilege of working closely with the team as they built one of the fastest growing cybersecurity companies in Israel, and the category leader of AI Security. From day zero, Aim set out with a bold vision: to give enterprises a way to adopt AI securely and responsibly. In two years, Matan, Adir, and their exceptional team turned that vision into a reality, building a company trusted by some of the world’s largest organizations. This achievement demonstrates the power of brilliant founders, strong teams, and conviction from inception. For YL Ventures’ $400M Fund V, this is a significant outcome and another marker of Israel’s unique ability to produce companies that matter on a global stage. https://lnkd.in/erHnKmfN

🚀 What an incredible day at JFrog's SwampUP event! I had the pleasure of joining forces on stage with Yossi Shaul and Eyal Dyment to announce our new ServiceNow and JFrog integration. Together, we are bridging the gap between Dev and Ops by combining JFrog’s security and compliance evidence with ServiceNow’s automation and operational insight. The result is that developers deliver innovation faster, and IT operations stay confident in the stability of their services. Key benefits:  • Seamless, bi-directional integration: Effortless connectivity between JFrog and ServiceNow, with secure data exchange and zero pipeline disruption.  • Automated change creation & governance: Change requests are generated and approved based on real-time evidence—streamlining compliance and reducing manual overhead.  • Accelerated incident response: Enabling faster root cause analysis and resolution with end-to-end software supply chain and operational data traceability.  • Developer-first experience: Developers stay productive in their preferred tools, like JFrog, while governance and visibility rise across the enterprise. 👉 Read more in our blog: https://lnkd.in/gGeGwqy5 #ServiceNow #JFrog #DevOps #ITSM #ITOM #SwampUP2025

On the Machine Learning Podcast, hosted by Tobias Macey, Buildots’ VP of Product & Engineering, Ori, joined the conversation to explore how AI and computer vision are helping construction teams track progress, identify root causes of delay, and forecast risks across projects without adding tasks for site crews. Already used across 1.4 billion sq ft of projects, from airports to data centers, Ori explains how Buildots AI helps teams reduce waste and take back control. 🎧 Catch the full conversation here: https://lnkd.in/eAmQpvvN #Construction #ConstructionAI #Constructiontech

Thank you to Sigalit Ben Hayoun and Yael Steinhart for inviting me to talk to Tel Aviv University Alumni Organization — and to Assaf Gilad for moderating the discussion. Time really does fly 😅 and it was a real privilege to be back to discuss just how much has changed in tech since I first started, including the recent groundbreaking new leaps into AI. What’s incredible is the pace of innovation in this field. Current market estimates range from 3-7 years until AGI (Artificial General Intelligence) is achieved (AI systems surpassing human cognitive abilities). When this is achieved one can expect the pace of change to be the fastest we’ve ever seen in history 📈 Technology and AI is neutral - neither good or bad. What matters is what we (humans) choose to do with it. With good intent, AGI could help solve some of the biggest global challenges (health, longevity, climate change, scientific discovery). With bad intent, it can create even bigger global challenges with significant risks. That is why Google’s motto on AI is so important - to be “bold and responsible”. The stakes have never been higher. Hope humanity rises to the moment, does the right thing, and makes the right choices 🌍 Adding below in comments the link to the full discussion (tip: if you just want a summary, past the link directly into Gemini 🪄) #TelAvivUniversityAlumni #GoogleAI
