I3 Capital Group

The Israeli cybersecurity industry pulled in 34% of all Israeli tech capital in the first half of this year, and almost none of it ever reaches a stock exchange. This session digs into why. Nir Bar Lev, CEO of HEQA Security, joins to talk quantum key distribution, the encryption layer built for the day current standards stop holding.

Dan Brahmy, Co-Founder and CEO of Cyabra, brings the other side of the AI conversation: detecting synthetic media and disinformation campaigns as they spread, not after. Gilad Peleg, CEO of LuminAI Security, tackles the open-weight AI problem: how organizations actually deploy those models securely. Leveraging the transparency of open-weight models, LuminAI Security brings a unique glass-box approach to AI security, instead of bolting on tools built for closed APIs. He has already walked the route most Israeli cyber companies take. He previously ran SecBI through its acquisition.

The panel will be moderated by an Israeli cybersecurity expert, to be announced soon.

Expect real numbers on where the money’s actually going, what these companies build day to day, and the harder question sitting underneath it all: if barely any Israeli cyber company ever lists publicly, where does an outside investor actually get in.
