Mamram Alumni Launch Blockchain Incubator in Israel

Mamram Alumni Association has launched the Mamram Blockchain Incubator (M.B.I.) in collaboration with blockchain companies like StarkWare.

Former students of the Israeli Defense Force’s Center of Computing and Information Technology Systems founded the Mamram Alumni Association, which partnered with StarkWare, Fireblocks, Collider VC, Gornitzky & Co., and other prominent blockchain companies to establish the Mamram Blockchain Incubator (M.B.I.).

In its mission to establish Israel as a global leader in blockchain innovation, the M.B.I. aims to assist founders and teams during the initial stages of project development, as stated in a news release that was shared with the media.

Web3 entrepreneurs in their early stages will have access to the knowledge and resources they need to realize their ideas thanks to the association’s partnerships with blockchain technology experts.

Startups can tap into the wisdom of industry heavyweights like StarkWare, FireBlocks, Collider VC, and Gornitzky & Co. as they guide their teams and founders on the path to success in the blockchain space.

Projects without a proof-of-concept or minimally viable product are not eligible for the incubation program. The Mamram Alumni Association is confident in its ability to assist entrepreneurs and teams in developing their ideas into marketable products and services due to the extensive experience of its members in the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF).

Regarding the M.B.I. debut, “We decided this year that nothing would stop us. We are here for entrepreneurs at the beginning of the road, and we are here to stay,” stated Yossi Melamed, Chairman of the Mamram Alumni Association. We are aware of the immense growth and development in the blockchain and WEB3 industries over the past few years, but unfortunately, our Israeli ecosystem is not conducive to entrepreneurship in these areas.

If you believe Melamed, M.B.I. is just the next logical step for the Mamram Alumni Association’s entrepreneurial endeavors. The group’s mission is to provide entrepreneurs with the tools they need to effectively diagnose challenges and develop tailored solutions.

Among Adam Singolda’s associates at the Mamram Alumni Association is Taboola’s chief executive officer and co-founder. A member of the clientflow and cashflow platforms Honeybook teams is Dror Shimoni, who also serves as chief technology officer. Amir Jerbi, co-founder and chief technology officer of Aqua Security, and Roey Eliyahu, co-founder and chief executive officer of cybersecurity behemoth Salt Security, are among the other famous members.

The CEO and co-founder of StarkWare, Professor Eli Ben-Sasson, expressed his profound love for blockchain education, saying: “It’s about more than just understanding technology—it’s about understanding how we, as societies, can function better, more efficiently, and more equitably.”

According to Matan Roginsky, an alumnus of Mamram and current co-founder and chief executive officer of Novia101, the M.B.I. program establishes Israel as a rising star in the blockchain industry. 

In order to help its fostered initiatives develop, the association is forming partnerships with prominent blockchain businesses. These partnerships will allow the association to tap into a vast network of resources beyond its alumni.
