Outside the day job

Away from work

Noam and his wife Ora-Tali have three children, Eilon, Yishai and Yaella. Between the companies and three young kids, quiet moments are rare.

Asked what matters most in business, his answer does not change: the relationships. The work he takes on is sales, the numbers and leading teams, and he is more interested in what lasts than in a quick win.
