Daniel Frankenstein is a corporate expert turned venture investor who spent eight years advising Fortune 1000 CFOs before personally leading CEB's market entry into Israel, giving him an unusually deep understanding of how large enterprises buy and adopt technology that he now applies to helping early-stage Israeli founders partner with multinationals. As a dual U.S.-Israeli citizen who lived in Israel for six years, he leads Joule's New York presence and serves as a two-way bridge between Israeli founders entering the U.S. market and sophisticated U.S. capital seeking exposure to Israeli startups, offering concrete guidance on operating in NYC while emphasizing that Israeli entrepreneurs possess resiliency not found anywhere else in the world.
