Zohar Zisapel

Israeli businessman (1949–2023)

In the history of enterprise, Zohar Zisapel is one of the names that keeps returning.

The record lists Zohar Zisapel as Israeli businessman (1949–2023).

Zohar Zisapel was born at Tel Aviv in 1949. His recorded nationality is Israel. He was educated at Tel Aviv University and Technion – Israel Institute of Technology.

Post-war business was mass-market and increasingly multinational, managed by professionals rather than owners.

He worked as entrepreneur, businessperson and industrialist.

Business reputations are unusually sensitive to the decade in which they were made.

That the business was built from Israel shaped it: capital, regulation and market size differ by country, and they decide what is even attemptable.

Zohar Zisapel died in 2023, aged 74. What remains is the enterprise and its consequences, which is the only durable measure of a commercial life.
