BIO – Arlene Shubow Marom

Originally from Miami, Florida, USA, I worked as a medical librarian at the Mount Sinai Medical Center and at the Papanicolaou Cancer Research Institute. I was also the Managing Editor at Hopkins Publications, my family’s publishing business. We put out two monthly publications for the building industry - The Florida Contractor and Builder and The Pan American Trader. Putting a paper to bed every two weeks helped prepare me for the pressures and deadlines of the startup world.

Currently, I’m the Founder/Director of Tech River, a company providing services for Israel’s High Tech and Export Communities - mainly business development, marketing, marketing communications, and business plans (narrative).

I’m also the organizer of the IsraelStartupNetwork on Meetup. (www.meetup.com/IsraelStartupNetwork) I caught the startup bug in 1995 while at PowerDsine (now Microsemi Israel), an incredible two years during which I became part of a warm, wonderful, and very hard-working family. I participated in most of the company’s early-stage experiences, and, despite working 12 and 14 hours at a stretch, I sang (off key) every day on the way to work.
