The Big Picture: 5 Laws driving our modern economy
Have you heard about the rule that 80% of the global wealth is created by 20% of the population? Or that 80% of the music we listen to is getting created by 20% of the artists?

Diving into the Israeli Tech Space
Israel is definitely worth a visit – not just to wander through the vibrant streets of Tel Aviv or to experience the holy place of Jerusalem. Also to dive into the wide ranging start-up scene! It is interesting to see what kind of start-ups Israel is producing. You won’t find the next Gorillaz or Blablacar in Israel – it seems like Israeli entrepreneurs are more on a mission of changing the world than solving “minor problems”: cyber security, healthcare, data management. Israeli start-ups are doing the tough stuff.

Patient-insight data for a better world?!
There is a way everyone can contribute and benefit at the same time. Basically, this is the “secret sauce” of the rise of human civilization. We managed to create means to communicate and interact with each other in a way that is creating added value by every interaction. It seems like our species has found a way to create energy and growth out of thin air, only by working together and “connecting our brains” (we don’t need Musk’s Neuralink for that; just language). What this means eventually is massive: the more people interact and share information, the bigger the added value created.
