Through living and working in Israel in the hi-tech business world, I have seen some great companies that have had average technology grow to global entities. Conversely, I have seen companies with great ideas and technologies that have not been able to generate significant revenue and have been acquired for their assets, or in some cases, gone out of business altogether.
My experience includes two stints with small Israeli start-ups, as well as senior management roles in one of the largest independent software companies in the world. My roles have included marketing, sales, business development and operations, as well as other disciplines. As a matter of fact, the only areas that I have not touched directly are coding the software, working as a member of the legal team and as a member of the finance department (though I interfaced with all of these in a multitude of roles).
I will try to focus on some of the challenges and lessons that I have seen in the past decade plus of hi-tech management experience in Israel.
