Become an advisor
Our advisors are experienced executives, serial entrepreneurs and industry experts who want to offer their wealth of knowledge to the next generation of successful entrepreneurs and business leaders. Our advisors spend a few hours with our entrepreneurs when they are in town, or take a phone call every few weeks when they are back in Israel. They offer feedback and market-specific insight and they open doors for our companies if they see synergy. They enjoy the interaction with young and bright entrepreneurs and with peers and colleagues who share their passion for tech, and business in the Florida community.
