“Meet at the Bar” — a relaxed startup conversation over drinks. Join “Taking a Ride on the Startup Journey” with Prof. Hagai Eisenberg, entrepreneur and Professor of Quantum Physics. The event will take place at a kosher bar, with drinks and food available for order.
״Meet at the Bar״ is an informal evening dedicated to open conversations about innovation, entrepreneurship, and curiosity-driven science — all in a relaxed, bar-style setting.
This session, “Taking a Ride on the Startup Journey,” will feature Prof. Hagai Eisenberg, entrepreneur and Professor of Quantum Physics, who brings a rare perspective from the intersection of deep science and startups.
Together, we will explore:
How to identify a de facto business opportunity emerging from academic research;
How to build a company with a business-driven DNA, rather than an academic one — focusing on real-world needs and the end user;
What is unique (and challenging) about turning academic ideas into scalable companies;
How to embrace and “play with” randomness as a driver of discovery, creativity, and innovation;
An evening for anyone curious about how groundbreaking science can evolve into impactful ventures — and how openness, experimentation, and a bit of unpredictability can shape the entrepreneurial journey.
