On this episode of the ILTV Podcast, host and Executive Editor Maayan Hoffman speaks with James Spiro, former CTech reporter and founder of The Spiro Circle, about how technology reveals the deeper story of Israel. From the COVID-19 pandemic to judicial reform protests and the Iron Swords war, Spiro explains how each crisis reshaped Israel’s innovation ecosystem. The conversation explores the rise of cyber security, the growing defense tech sector, and the emerging role of artificial intelligence in both attack and defense.
