High Tech on the Low ft. Lisya Bahar Manoah - Engineers Invest Too
Many would have you believe that only finance and economic professionals move into the venture capital space - think again! With the decrease in venture funding and overall economic outlook looking dreary, Lisya Bahar Manoah, General Partner at Catalyst Investments with $450 million in total assets, former mechanical engineer gone venture capitalist, believes that the time is now for those entrepreneurs with ideas that will truly move the needle forward. With her and her partners' combined engineering background, Catalyst is on the look for entrepreneurs who have their math down (because they'll check you!) and are building tech solutions for a problem that will make processes more efficient and noticeably impact society, and not just because they are nice to have.

High Tech on the Low ft. Ohad Ronen - On the Record
With the myriad of tech solutions in our world comes the always lurking bugs, connection issues, and other development problems.

High Tech on the Low ft. Dotan Asselmann - Surgery Needs a Better Standard
It may surprise you to hear but surgery results vary between patients, hospitals, and departments in the same hospital, even for the same procedure.

High Tech on the Low ft. Sayon Chandrakanthan - New Take on Automated Hydroponics
Hydroponics is a well-known growing technique that uses a water-based nutrient solution instead of soil for growth and is usually found in urban building projects where soil can be inconvenient or scarce. Sayon Chandrakanthan, CEO and Founder of Advanced Autoponics, has long toyed with hydroponics but wanted to make a system that did not require the maintenance often associated with hydroponics systems. So now, he and his team have made a solution to manage hydroponic systems remotely and completely automated, just install and start growing.

While technological development is cool, it is only as cool as your audience noticing it. Without the proper infrastructure to properly promote your business or solution, startups can fall flat on their faces. Idan Carmeli, Managing Partner at B2B marketing firm, Envy, believes in getting the operational foundations of marketing automation right since it is the key to a successful marketing funnel that will drive business and revenue. The only catch is deciding the proper moment to automate processes and focus on revenue operations so as not to get overwhelmed by poorly thought-out processes and and improperly aligned goals.

Startups are no easy business, and often, in the middle of growing one, founders need to pivot. A pivot is essentially shifting business directions, perhaps changing the product or the business model, but the main point is that it is a significant change from the startup's original trajectory. As we continue our third episode following up with entrepreneur Ian Sanders, CEO and Founder of Blue Cape, we come to understand more about how founders should go about assessing a potential pivot and how sometimes certain elements of the business are just "out of your hands".

It may seem weird to think that your car is actually more computer than machine these days. With onboard computers, the rise of electric vehicles and autonomous driving, and more ways to remain connected while on the road, your car is no longer just a machine for transporting you from point A to B, it is a digital device that must be treated as such.

As our lives and cars become ever more digitally integrated into daily processes, Roy wants to make sure the general population is protected from malicious cyber attacks that target their cars and other automobile-related infrastructure.

High Tech on the Low ft. Menashe Shani - Usability Not Just Accessibility
Web accessibility has been an issue since the internet's adoption. In recent years, many software products and services have been developed to solve this growing need. Menashe Shani, CEO and Co-Founder of Purple Lens, aims to innovate on the traditional web accessibility offering by creating a software product that focuses on usability for all users as opposed to just accessibility for some. He hopes in time to re-educate web developers and business owners to understand how critical accessibility is for the user experience from the start of the web development process and how it will end up helping to increase business revenue and growth.

High Tech on the Low ft. Ori Manor Zuckerman - Closing Deals Over Email and Video Just Got a Whole Lot More Easy
There is more to communication than words - that we are all aware of in our daily interactions. And, in business negotiations and dealmaking, this subtext is even more significant. Ori Manor Zuckerman, CEO and Founder of Substrata, is building a machine-learning-based solution that can accurately interpret the subtext in emails and video calls. While initially trying to better map office politics, Ori has instead developed a methodology that can help dealmakers close more by better understanding the hierarchy, emotional expressions, and complexities they are presented with in any dealmaking environment.

High Tech on the Low ft. Tim Mironov - How Tech Is Helping You Become an International Real Estate Mogul
Real estate is considered to be one of the greatest investment assets that a person can acquire, even more so when it is based in the USA. With opportunity that abounds and one of the world's biggest housing markets, US real estate is in many ways the dream for many real estate investors. But, what if you come from abroad, did you know it's virtually impossible to get financing to buy US real estate? Tim Mironov, Chief Data Scientist and co-founder at Lendai, believes in helping to level the playing field for global investors in the US real estate market and sees his solution as the next evolution in real estate financing, so foreigners can finally be able to buy that dream beach house in Maui or apartment in New York.

High Tech on the Low ft. Bonnka Lim - Web3 is the Interactive Web
Web3 is a term used to describe the next evolution of the internet, as some claim. With a focus on virtual reality and immersive experiences, Web3 and the 'Metaverse' have the ability to transform the way we interact with each other, purchase goods, and engage with entertainment. Bonnka Lim, CMO of Tetavi, has embraced Web3 and the Metaverse while promoting volumetric capture technology that brings real people into the digital world and enables the creation of immersive content and interactive experiences. In the near future, perhaps all our content will be powered by volumetric technology enabling creators to fully express their creativity and create more engaging digital content for Web3 and the Metaverse, making it hard to distinguish between real and volumetric-based videos.

High Tech on the Low ft. Eddy Benami - You May Not Be Diagnosed Right
When technology comes along to change the medical field, it is often met with lengthy testing and legal procedures, after all, people do not want to get something in their body if it is not safe. But would you believe that maybe what doctors are diagnosing, may not be entirely accurate and in fact are basing their assessment on outdated models? Eddy Benami, CTO & Co-Founder of Neuralight, is trying to create a method that innovates the current diagnosis procedure for neurological and psychological disorders so that people can actually be treated for what they have, and not what some professionals may think they have.

High Tech on the Low ft. Rani Shifron - Gateway to the East
As companies consistently look to expand globally, East Asian markets look ever more promising. Rani Shifron, founder of Healthier Globe and Israel Director for the IP2 Launchpad Taiwan-Israel Program, believes that Taiwan, more than any other nation, is the number one location for founders when trying to take their solution overseas, especially into Asia. With a booming tech sector, an ambition to grow, and their proximity to major Asian markets, Taiwan is poised to even replace giants like China and Japan when it comes to acting as the right point of entry for tech ventures as they scale internationally.
