Hi, this is Yael. 

Thank you for subscribing to my newsletter. I hope you'll find it worth your time.

If you do, please consider taking up a full subscription at this Substack platform, which I have started recently, for $6/month or $50/year.

This way, you'll be able to receive the daily posts that I do on LinkedIn, and you'll also get to see/hear new updates about my work—building tools for purpose-driven enterprises. In addition, as a paying subscriber, you'll get access to discounts (courses, workshops, and more).

Most importantly, the paid version is where the experimentation, brainstorming, and organizing efforts will occur (or at least originate).

I want to encourage the development of a community of people concerned about the issues I have been discussing for over a decade now: how we can leverage new technologies to enhance enterprises' potential and improve individual well-being.

It's hard to say precisely what will happen there—but on the plus side, the earlier you join, the higher the chance your input will have a meaningful impact.


My journey

I'm a builder, founder, and community-driven person in the high-tech landscape.

I spent over 20 years hopping between Paris, London, New York, and Tel Aviv.

I founded/co-founded several ventures from the ground up, incorporating the companies, recruiting the first employees, fundraising, and building business strategies.

I advise a few select startups and actively make angel investments.

In 2020, I founded Nevelab Technologies to help corporate teams leverage AI to address their sustainability efforts. I also created The Road to Sustainability, a think tank to support corporations' purpose-driven innovations. The community has since grown from 0 to 25000+.

I used to work with large corporations like Microsoft, Amazon, IBM, and Google (I was an advisor and mentor for many years) and firms like l'Oréal, Danone, and Orange.

Most projects included strategic innovation, business development for CEOs, community building, and tech integration.

More:

» 2008-2016: built various startups, including a B2B digital platform to manage customer reach (acquired by a cloud company) and a recipe organizer mobile app.

» 2001-2016: YOPPS was an innovation agency specialized in digital communication and interactive strategy, providing highly valued digital services for corporations, B2B startups, and institutions (CAC40 our clients l'Oréal, La Durée, Pernod Ricard, Danone, Chopard, Orange).

» YOPPS DISRUPT was a digital think tank helping corporations, institutions, and governmental agencies: culture and organization, insights, and training to inspire innovative and strategic visions.

» 2008-2011: Brand Talking®, Building amazing infographics and ambitious human-centric experiences for corporations and large agencies (funded, acquired by a multinational agency).

» 2001-2004: YakaParis.com was one of the first social platforms ever created to provide services for the city of Paris with 50,000 unique users per month (granted several times, acquired by a large TelCo).

In any case, thank you again for paying attention to what I have to offer.

I deeply appreciate your interest.
