Future Summit

Future Summit gathers the world’s leading builders in Tel Aviv to shape the future of tech, business, and the region.
Positioned as the “Sun Valley of the Middle East”, Future Summit is a non-profit initiative founded by leading entrepreneurs and investors to bring together global tech, business, media, state and academic leaders - at this pivotal moment in history - to hold intimate, off the record conversations to address the defining questions of our time.

Future Summit not for profit initiative managed by Noa Zilberman and led by its executive board including David Marcus, Michael Einsenberg, Seth Rosenberg, David Stark, Diklah Sheinfeld, and Raphael Ouzan.

Future Summit is an off the record opportunity to exchange ideas that affect our collective businesses, countries, and prosperity. There are no panels or speeches at Future Summit. You will participate in a series of moderated discussions with peers who are leaders in their field. Topics will include the influence of social media, AI’s impact on the future and the ethical challenges posed by emerging technologies.

At Future Summit, your safety and security are our top priority. We’ve partnered with a globally recognized leader in protection services with an outstanding track record of safeguarding the most high-profile individuals ever to visit Israel—ranging from top government officials to global business leaders and VIP delegations.
Our security team is led by former Israeli government security experts and personnel trained in Israel’s elite security units. To ensure the highest level of safety, we are doubling the suggested security coverage—providing an extra layer of protection and peace of mind.
