Jennifer Elias ^Leaders

Hi there!

I'm Jen, the co-founder of Tech it Forward, an Israeli-based technology scouting company.

We specialize in sourcing the best Israeli technologies and research for international corporations and investors. Based in Tel Aviv, we help global industry leaders such as Natura, Cartier, Avon, Boticario, WestRock Coffee, and more... discover and integrate the most exciting innovations the Startup Nation has to offer.

As an entrepreneur, I have a background in innovation management, open innovation, and strategy. Born and raised in France, I studied a Double Master’s Degree in Strategic Management and Business Law from EMLyon Business School (ranked in the top 15 globally by Financial Times) and the University of Rennes I.

My career began at Ernst and Young Paris before I moved to Israel to embark on my Israeli startup journey. I've held various roles in product marketing and strategy in high-tech startups and launched my own ventures, including Tech it Forward, a scouting agency, Bubahub, a coworking space for parents, and Way to Stay, a marketplace for online experiences.

When I’m not busy helping businesses thrive, you can find me brainstorming new startup ideas, volunteering, or teaching piano.

Let’s connect and explore how we can innovate together: jennifer@techitforward.com.
