From organizing conventions to assisting young business professionals through the Ami Ben Basat and Leon Rekanati’s "Startupseeds," Shochat dedicates his time and talent to supporting new ideas in the Internet field by grooming and nurturing the country’s talented youth. In Israel, Shochat also serves as a professional mentor at the Interdisciplinary Center (IDC) School’s ZELL program, which supports the development of future entrepreneurs.

"Eden is truly a visionary with a fierce passion for technology and its possibilities," said Trevor Matz, President and CEO of Aternity.
