The Yedda Team
Let us introduce the Yedda team:
Avichay Nissenbaum, founder, in charge of CEOing. And food. Lots of other stuff too, but food is important. Always on the run to make yet another partner happy. Formerly co-founder of SmarTeam Corp.
Yaniv Golan, founder and CTO, the brains behind the machine, and somewhat obsessive about the user experience. Quite a flickr-holic too. Formerly VP R&D at SmarTeam Corp.
Osher Frimerman, the algorithms guy. One man Think Tank. Osher’s dreams are often haunted by semantic tag clouds traversing clustered weighted graphs…
Daniel Verhovsky – master of the Yedda stove pipes, making all the pieces actually work. Between Yedda and his new born, still finds time for endless hours of WoW gaming. A vocal supporter for adding “Advanced Search”, and, last but not least, his skills as a former truck driver often come in handy.
Eran Sandler – Our benchmark for Yedda. We’re still trying to find a question he cannot answer (and yes, we did try “What is the average birth rate of the Mediterranean Monk Seal?”). When we need the impossible done overnight, he’s the guy.
Casper… Casper is in charge of making sure that no car passes nearby unnoticed. Other then that, he’s pretty useless, but we like him anyway.
The Cat: No one knows what’s her name or where she came from. But she’s always around, doing the weirdest things.
Plus, we’ve got several folks helping us with lots of good advice, hence we asked them to join our Yedda Advisory Board:
Dr. Joel Orr: futurist, writer, and speaker, active in the engineering automation, systems, and knowledge-management communities for over 30 years. http://www.joelorr.com.
Avi Shechter: Former Co-General Manager of ICQ and VP at AOL, and nowadays Venture Partner and consultant.
Rami Lipman, Business Strategist and Master Coffee Blender, recognized for his creative entrepreneurship, execution and leadership abilities, with many scars and even more medals from his frequent involvement in early stage companies.
