BLC Event: Israel's Role in Global Cyber Security

This event has reached capacity. To be put on the wait list, contact Elizabeth Leep at 415-369-2875, elizabethl@sfjcf.org.

Cyber threats have never been more part of our daily lives. Globally, companies spend $15 billion trying to protect us from hackers and cybercrime. Israeli companies are playing an increasing role in this ecosystem. In fact, 20% of the cyber market, more than $3.5 billion a year, is spent on solutions developed in Israel on Israeli technology platforms. Join the Federation's Business Leadership Council (BLC) and California Israel Chamber of Commerce (CICC) for a guided visit of the largest global cyber security event, the RSA Conference where you will be introduced to Israeli cyber security companies that are creating the solutions of tomorrow and keeping U.S. companies safe.

Here’s what attendees can expect from this special opportunity.

  • Complimentary Expo Pass at the conference (valued at $125).
