Fractional CFO

Blue Ridge Partners

I've worked with DeepTech (mainly) founders for over 5 years, building the business and financial muscle behind their technology!

After exiting the angel group I cofounded, I found that I just couldn't stay away from startups, but I knew I didn't want to be a founder again...
So I started consulting for founders and quickly found that the business and finance stuff I knew so well was actually really hard for them. From deep in the weeds of building project management to creating and maintaining financial models to creating pitches for complex tech, I thoroughly enjoyed the nights-and-weekends work of supporting founders.

When my family moved from the US to the UK in 2022, I transitioned my "hobby" from nights-and-weekends into a real job, and now, I help founders make sense of their strategy, business, and finances full time!

VP Marketing and Growth

Not everything needs a long story...

Found out about Boardy here on LinkedIn.

Got Andrew D'Souza on a call and talked shop.

I started using it myself, and in the past few months, I have been getting intros in my inbox.

Do I recommend using it? Yes :)

That is it, good luck!

I will die on this hill.

When it comes to growth and marketing, outsourcing to traditional agencies is a bad idea.

A worse idea?

Big, bloated internal marketing teams that take forever to execute and have massive overlap.

What solution do I propose to CEOs and founders?

A-Level talent that comes as an in-source team!

Where can you find that?

I don't know who needs to see this... the real and current SEO is happening on Reddit right now :)

Every NYC event for Israeli founders where I know less than 30% of the people is a good event in my books, thanks Guy Lachmann :)

This week, we had the pleasure of hosting a networking dinner for 14 outstanding founders and investors from NYC and TLV in New York City. We spent two hours enjoying great food, wine, and engaging company. Pearl Cohen proudly supports the thriving Israeli-related tech scene in New York, thanks to the full legal coverage provided by our US and Israeli offices.

Congratulations your startup is a media company in the making!

I don't know who in B2B needs to hear this, but that video you invested time to create for LinkedIn?

You should publish it on YouTube, Instagram, X, and TikTok too...

AI visibility is essential for B2B startups. My good friend and one of my most favourite entrepreneurs will be at #CyberMarketingCon in Austin Texas. If you are interested in AI visibility, you should book time with him.

Meet Klarivo at #CyberMarketingCon in Austin on Dec 9-10!

If you’re trying to win on AI search, here is the reality most brands still ignore:
ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google pull more signals from Reddit, Inc. and Quora than from your entire blog archive.

Brands that show up with real influence on Reddit are the ones getting surfaced in AI answers.

That is why the fastest growing cybersecurity companies partner with us.

We build Reddit, Inc., Quora, Trustpilot, G2 and other influence sources at a scale that moves the needle in 30 to 60 days.

Most see their purchases from AI driven sessions jump five times.

If you’re in Austin for the event and want to see how this works behind the scenes, Almog Elmaliah is around for quick conversations.

This is huge, congrats Rotem Weiss and team :)

Our new /research endpoint is live and it just reached #1 on DeepResearch Bench! 

I’m excited to share something we’ve been heads-down building at Tavily. Our new /research endpoint just achieved state-of-the-art results, outperforming OpenAI, Perplexity, Google, and Anthropic across the core quality metrics.

When we first introduced GPT-Researcher in 2023, the first open-source deep-research agent, a full research workflow could take minutes to run end-to-end. Since then, we’ve rebuilt the entire system on an AI-native search stack that’s dramatically faster and more reliable. The result is a research agent that goes deeper, sources better, and delivers high-quality reports in a fraction of the time.

This matters because deep research is one of the most powerful agentic use cases. It isn’t just answering a question. It’s doing the kind of work humans simply can’t: scanning large portions of the web, identifying the right evidence, reconciling conflicting information, and synthesizing everything into a structured, citation-rich report.

My very unpopular prediction...

WhatsApp GTM for B2B will be a valid strategy soon, and it will be more effective than email marketing.
