Esti Shohat Rozenfeld Appointed CEO of Tech2Peace

Esti Shohat Rozenfeld has taken on the role of Chief Executive Officer at Tech2Peace, an initiative focused on fostering Israeli-Palestinian cooperation through technology and dialogue.

With a background in software engineering and over 15 years of experience in the tech sector, Rozenfeld brings both technical expertise and a long-standing commitment to activism. Tech2Peace combines high-tech training with dialogue-based workshops, aiming to build a foundation for cross-border entrepreneurship and collaborative leadership.

In her statement, Rozenfeld emphasized the urgency of leadership during a time marked by instability, polarization, and collective grief:

“In these uncertain and unstable times, we are called to lead — to take action and guide our societies toward a just peace.”

She referenced Marshall Ganz’s definition of leadership as “accepting responsibility for enabling others to achieve shared purpose under conditions of uncertainty,” aligning it with Tech2Peace’s goals of social impact through innovation and cooperation.

Rozenfeld joins the organization at a time when civil society efforts remain critical for envisioning and building more inclusive futures across divided communities.
