Hillel Fuld is an American Israeli tech blogger and speaker.[1][2] He is mostly known for writing his own blog TechNMarketing.

Career

Fuld started blogging after graduating from university.[3] In an interview with The Jewish Journal he stated that it was part of creating "a diary on the internet. Today we call that a blog and it turns out that was set to become a thing,".[4] He has since been published in publications such as Inc. (magazine),[5] Techcrunch,[6] Business Insider,[7] Venture Beat,[8] Entrepreneur,[9] The Next Web,[10] Mashable[11] and The Jerusalem Post.[12] Fuld conducted interviews with many leaders in the tech community including Marc Andreesen, Gary Vaynerchuk, Guy Kawasaki, Alyssa Milano and more.[13]

In 2014, Hillel met up with Steve Wozniak during his visit to Israel[14]. Their meeting happened during the 2014 Israel-Gaza conflict and rockets were fired at Tel Aviv during their meeting. As a result they spent two hours in a bomb shelter. In the coverage of the event, Hillel was dubbed "The Robert Scoble of Israel".[15]

In 2015 GeekTime, a leading tech magazine in Israel, named Fuld as one of 100 most influential people in the Israeli tech industry. Fuld is the strategic advisor to Israeli tech companies such as UMoove and Curiyo.[16]

Fuld's father, Rabbi Yonah Fuld, was the second principal of Salanter Akiba Riverdale Academy.[17] His family moved to Israel during his teenage years. Fuld graduated with a BA in political science from Bar Ilan University and promptly started blogging about technology.[18]

In September 2018 Ari Fuld, Fuld's brother, was stabbed to death by a Palestinian at the Gush Etzion Junction.[19] Fuld described his brother as a hero.[20][21]
