On Thursday night, Elie Wurtman form Benchmark Israel treated us to an amazing dinner at the Mamilla Hotel’s rooftop restaurant. Benchmark is an important Venture Capital firm, which has uncovered such successes as eBay, Twitter, and Zipcar. We were joined by Judith Phillips, a Benchmark Israel analyst, and Hod Fleishman, a CEO from one of their portfolio companies, a road-safety firm called Green Road. Overlooking a breathtaking view of new and old Jerusalem, we discussed issues facing venture capitalists and entrepreneurs from a variety of perspectives. The conversation was lively, the food was delicious, and we so appreciate Mr Wurtman’s giving us such an amazing opportunity.
