ONE: The Resilience & Security Salon

ONE Launch: An Open Table on Resilience & Critical Tech
Join us as we welcome Cam Geiger, former SVP of Supply Chain & Innovation at Walmart to Israel for an exclusive evening hosted by Shani Zanescu, Founder & General Partner of Universe Partners, and Idan Tamir, VP of Corporate Development at HAREL and Co-Founder of GUTS Innovation Hub, and Guy Lachmann, Co-Chair IL Hi-Tech Practice Group, Pearl Cohen.
Founders have no shortage of content-driven events. So we're doing something different: an open-table conversation, a carefully curated room, and no panels or presentations to sit through (and of course, delicious bites and drinks).
Bringing together a select group of deep tech and resilience-first founders, the afternoon will explore the technologies reshaping how our physical world operates - from AI and semiconductors to supply chains and critical infrastructure.
