The StartupShow by GlobalTechBox.com

It’s been a while since we hosted a prop tech startup and it’s time to find out about the latest happenings in this disruptive industry. That’s why Cédric met with Martin Angehrn, CEO & Co-Founder of Brixel. Check out our video to learn about the current needs in the real estate market and the platform that will fulfil them.

Martin Angehrn has an MBA and has spent a big part of his career in the marketing industry. When working for agencies, he collaborated with various startups on their product market development. Angehrn entered the digital world in 2013 when he joined a digital agency founded by Michael Wiedemann. Eventually, Angehrn and Wiedemann combined their experience and knowledge, and together they founded Brixel.

The initial idea behind Brixel was to simplify the real estate trading experience. By combining real estate with the digital world, their goal was to enable their clients to sell or buy a house with just a few clicks. They grew substantially over the last two years, and now Brixel is a platform where anyone can buy, sell or invest in real estate like an expert.

We couldn’t have left Israel without visiting Karamba Security headquarters in Hod Hasharon! That’s where Cédric met with chairman & co-founder, David Barzilai, and discussed various gripping topics like the autonomous driving opportunities, car hacking as well as building an “A team”. Don’t miss this episode!

David Barzilai is an entrepreneurial executive, with a wealth of experience in contributing to established companies as a VP Marketing and Management Advisor. When talking about his career, he illustrates it as a mixture of startup entrepreneur and go-to-market executive. Also, what excites Barzilai the most about the startup world is the impact and the change that can be made. In our interview with this serial entrepreneur, the main focus was on the third company he co-founded, Karamba Security.

With the rise of self-drive vehicles and all the benefits that come along, there is also a rising risk of cyber attacks. Karamba Security is a cybersecurity company that provides preventive solutions for the automotive industry. Barzilai explains that data centre cybersecurity use the quite common methodology of false alerts, based on statistics and heuristics. Since statistics is not always right, the team behind Karamba Security was the first to come up with a solution that enables prevention with zero false alerts.
