Rakefet Russak Aminoach is one of the very few global VCs who previously ran a major incumbent bank, having served as President & CEO of Bank Leumi before becoming a managing partner at Team8, where she personally led one of the earliest bank-as-a-tech-company transformations by launching Pepper, a fully digital mobile bank. She takes a founder-like, hands-on company building approach rather than passive investing, working with entrepreneurs from concept stage and using her experience managing thousands of employees in a highly regulated organization to co-create businesses that are born secure through Team8's distinctive cyber and fintech focus.

Notable Investments
Team8 operates as both a venture-creation foundry that co-builds 1-2 new companies per year with 80-100+ in-house experts and a traditional VC fund, while maintaining structured global communities of C-level executives who co-ideate and validate new startups through dedicated villages like their CISO Village. Founded by former leaders of Israeli military intelligence Unit 8200, they use an attacker perspective to frame problem selection in cybersecurity and data, working with global corporates like Walmart and Microsoft as active design partners rather than just investors.
