Hi Matan, Here is the current itinerary for next week (as of right now). I welcome your thoughts and suggestions. The morning of the 31st in Beer Sheva is still a little light. Good news: As you know, Professor Nadav Katz at Hebrew University of Jerusalem agreed to a meeting. That's a win. Maybe you or Major Gal spoke with him? As we discussed this morning, if you or Major Gal have contacts at any of the following, please let me know: - MAFAT (I emailed Maj Liat a few days ago, but have not yet heard back-- I forwarded you the email) - Google AI -- no response to date from my U.S. contact at Google - Intel Israel -- my contact at Intel in the USA is Mr. Greg Clifton, 703-543-7696 - office, 703-217-3088 - cell, greg.clifton@intel.com. He is having to work through various intermediaries to reach out to colleagues there. - Technion - Israeli National Cyber Directorate (INCD) (Ma'arach) -- Mr. Zebrak is reaching out to them for me - An Israeli venture capital firm that would be worth visiting with students next April -- I tried the Viola Group and have not yet heard back from them - Ben-Gurion University (BGU) Cyber Excellence Center -- I used their web portal contact system, and have not yet heard back from them. - National Cyber Emergency Response Team (CERT) (part of NCSA and INCD) -- I used INCD's web portal contact system, and have not yet heard back from them. - Gav Yam Negev Advanced Technologies Park (the National CERT is inside, I understand) I have good contacts at MassChallenge Texas who will help me reach the right people at MassChallenge Israel in Jerusalem. I met their Founder and former CEO last week in Cambridge, MA: Mr. John Harthorne, John@2L.vc. Please send me the address for the Israel National Defense College (INDC) so I know where to meet you.
