Erel N. Margalit, PhD combines venture capital with regional development by creating physical "Startup City" campuses that cluster startups, corporations, academia, and government to revitalize entire regions and underserved communities rather than just backing individual companies. He operates with a "social profit" thesis that measures success not only by financial returns but by using technology clusters and exits to lift cities and diverse populations, positioning this approach as something Silicon Valley can learn from the Israeli model he helped design.
