Inside the Mind of One of Israel's Top VC ft. Chemi Peres from Pitango
🇮🇱 Legacy, Leadership & the Future of Israeli Innovation | Chemi Peres on IsraelTech
What does it mean to carry the Peres name in today’s Israel - and what does the future of defense, venture capital, and peacebuilding look like through the eyes of someone shaping all three?
In this rare sit-down, Chemi Peres - Managing Partner & Co-Founder of Pitango Venture Capital, Chairman of the Peres Center for Peace and Innovation, and son of Israeli visionary Shimon Peres - opens up like never before.
We talk about:
- His journey from IAF pilot to VC powerhouse
- The untold story of Israel’s canceled Lavi fighter jet project and U.S. pressure behind it
- How failures (and getting fired) drove him to build Israel's largest VC firm
- The rise of dual-use defense tech and Israel’s advantage in AI and innovation
- The vision behind the Peres Center’s Institute for the Future
Why the next frontier is going from unicorns 🦄 to giraffes 🦒 - yes, trillion-dollar companies!
And he doesn’t shy away from controversy - from legacy to geopolitics to the tech future of war and peace.
👉 Watch, comment, and join the conversation: Is Israel ready to lead the future of global tech - again?
