Well, the cat is out of the bag… You read the subject line correctly… As of today, I’ll be covering the Israeli startup scene for none other than TechCrunch.
Obviously this is a big day for me, but it’s also a big day for Israeli startups. As of today they have a dedicated avenue to the most influential news sources of the Internet industry.
Does this mean every Israeli startup will now get billing on TechCrunch? Of course not. It does mean however that a select number of the incredible companies we have here in Israel will now be able to gain some duly deserved exposure. And that is indeed a big deal.
Am I a full-time TechCrunch employee? No. I am doing this on an outsourced basis.
So without further adieu, here’s my first post:

And if you come across an interesting Israeli startup, I’d be happy to learn about it!


Hello Roi,
Congrats on the Techcrunch job.
I agree with you, this is a big day for the Israeli start-up scene.
Great first post!

People that don’t make Techcrunch can go on Launchpad Israel. Or vice versa ;)
