Adam Bismut, an Israeli entrepreneur and founder of SightBit, was tragically killed during a battle in the Gaza Strip. Bismut, a 35-year-old advanced master sergeant in the reserves, lost his life alongside 20 other Israeli soldiers in the deadliest IDF incident during the Israel-Hamas war.

Four years ago, Bismut established SightBit, to develop an innovative AI system designed to detect individuals drowning at sea and alert rescuers in real-time. The inspiration for the startup came from a heartbreaking incident Bismut witnessed, where a drowning victim could not be saved. His work has since contributed to saving countless lives.
