About

Amir Gal-Or is Co-Founder and Chairman of 42AI, a Tel Aviv company building a Behavioral World Model that predicts how individual people will act as circumstances change.

Before founding

Amir served for 24 years as an Israeli Air Force fighter pilot and aerobatic team member, then earned an MBA from Tel Aviv University and completed Harvard's private equity and venture capital program. He founded Infinity Group, the Israeli-Chinese equity fund, and later Innonation, a platform linking Israeli innovation with the world.

Founder Insights

Amir received the Chinese Government Friendship Award in 2017 and the Jerusalem Award in 2019 for advancing China-Israel innovation ties. He also hosts the podcast Time with Amir Gal Or and wrote a book on lessons from 20 years of working with Chinese partners.

Experience

Through Infinity Group he established 23 VC funds totaling $2 billion and took part in 75 exits across Israel, the US and China. At 42AI he works alongside his son, CEO Amit Gal-Or, and CTO Ehud Ezra, with $62.5 million in seed funding coming from the founders and Infinity Group.

Scale & Impact

42AI emerged from stealth in November 2026 and works with 10 large brokerages, with revenue above seven figures. One brokerage reportedly generated about $30 million in added value through dynamic hedging, and the company is exploring gaming, fraud prevention and cybersecurity next.
