There are areas outside the combat zone where you could talk. There are other tech people like me who 'steal' half an hour here, two hours there, to work. There's no choice. Remember, we went through the acquisition in July 2023, and the agreement was to complete it by the end of 2023. On October 7th, reality changed. As the only Israeli executive in the company, I joined important meetings from Gaza - seeing me would help calm them down. I always said: no matter what happens here, Israeli high-tech will continue. In December, as agreed in the acquisition, everything was finalized. Plus, there's good management in Israel and abroad, and the business runs smoothly even when I'm not there at any given moment.</p><p>Hebrew <a href="https://www.ynet.co.il/economy/article/r1o3ltlm1x" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">ynet.co.il/economy/article/r1o</span><span class="invisible">3ltlm1x</span></a></p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GazaGenocide" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GazaGenocide</span></a> <br><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/israel" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>israel</span></a></span> <br><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/palestine" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>palestine</span></a></span><br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/France" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>France</span></a></p>
