Or Bokobza (Boss 108) on Building Autonomous Communities and The Role of Data

Or Bokobza, a visionary in the prop-tech space, joined us to discuss the exciting developments at VENN, including their recent collaboration with Bozzuto on the My Bozzuto platform. This all-in-one platform aims to revolutionize the resident experience by automating and simplifying every aspect of living in a community.

Evan and Or delved into the innovative My Bozzuto initiative, which promises to bring "Apple Magic" to multifamily living. My Bozzuto combines operational efficiency with exceptional resident experience, covering everything from apartment sales to automated resident touchpoints, effectively transforming buildings into autonomous entities. 

The conversation took a personal turn as Or Bokobza shared his Israeli roots and how Tel Aviv's vibrant tech scene inspires innovation. From bustling streets filled with young innovators to a strong sense of community, Tel Aviv's unique atmosphere fosters groundbreaking ideas and startups. Or recommended reading "Start-Up Nation" for those interested in understanding Israel's innovative culture.

Or painted a vivid picture of Tel Aviv's essence, describing it as a bustling city with a small-town feel, where community and support flourish. He noted the density of the city parallels that of New York, making transportation and parking a challenge, much like many metropolitan areas.

Or discussed the significant impact of mandatory military service on Israeli culture. This experience fosters camaraderie, innovation, and a sense of mutual responsibility, which he believes is integral to Israel's success as a tech hub. The shared experiences in the military create strong bonds that often translate into successful business ventures.

Or shared VENN's journey, from humble beginnings to creating a technology-driven operating system that enhances resident experiences. The company has successfully launched My Bozzuto, marking a significant milestone in their mission to digitize and elevate the multifamily industry.

The discussion highlighted the importance of collaboration and building an open API ecosystem within the industry. Or emphasized the need for vendor collaboration to create seamless tech solutions, making My Bozzuto an integral part of Bozzuto's digital transformation strategy.
