Yishai Lehavi
Yishai Lehavi is the co-founder and CEO of TULU, a New York and Tel Aviv-born proptech company that turns dead lobby space in apartment buildings into 24/7 on-demand rental hubs for vacuums, gaming consoles, e-scooters and household goods. A trained architect who once built a mobile app to redistribute passengers on crowded trains, Lehavi met co-founder Yael Shemer at MIT's designX accelerator and bet the company on a simple idea: people want access to things, not ownership of them. TULU now serves more than 500,000 residents across 60 cities on both sides of the Atlantic and has raised roughly $53M in total funding.
