Israel Grintz

As the Founder & CEO of Terrific, I’m excited to be leading the social commerce revolution through a deep passion for data science, AI and social trends. Prior to founding Terrific, I had the honor of serving on the leadership team of Israel’s Ministry of Defense tech fund, where I oversaw more than $100M of investments into leading technology companies. I’m proud of my unique capacity for implementing business-driven plans by effectively defining, communicating, and nurturing impactful visions. Outside of the above, I remain an active investor and advisor, partnering with several venture capital firms to manage financial investments into technology companies in various stages of development. I love building hands-on experience in identifying and leveraging trends, patterns, openings and opportunities across different markets. Having co-written “Who Wants to Travel to The Moon With Me?”, a book about the astonishing entrepreneurial culture in Israeli youth, my two greatest passions are building solutions to problems that improve quality of life, and creating meaningful experiences to be shared with as many people as possible.
