Ron Salpeter leads the firm’s high-tech mediation practice.
He does so by leveraging an exceptional breadth of experience spanning international legal practice in the high-tech sector, investment banking, entrepreneurship, service as CEO of a high-tech company, and partnership in a venture capital fund.
Ron Salpeter joined Borochovsky & Co. in 2024, following mediation training at Harvard University in Boston, while also serving, since 2022, as a partner at the venture capital fund IL Ventures.
For approximately a decade, from 2010 to 2021, Ron founded and led HINOMAN as CEO. HINOMAN was a food-tech venture through which some of the world’s most advanced production facilities were established, supported by what was at the time the largest foreign investment ever made in the Gaza Envelope region.
Prior to his entrepreneurial activity, also for approximately a decade, from 2001 to 2010, Ron served as Co-CEO of TAIYO-POC’s investment banking activity. In that capacity, he initiated, in 2004, the BVLGARI–LEVIEV partnership — the most significant joint venture transaction in the global jewelry sector that year. In 2006, TAIYO-POC initiated the SHARP–CHRISTIAN DIOR partnership for the creation of the world’s first luxury-brand mobile phone.
Between 1989 and 2001, after completing a master’s degree in Japanese commercial law, in Japanese, at Osaka University, Ron joined the law firm ASAHI in Tokyo — now Nishimura & Asahi, Japan’s largest law firm — where he established the leading legal practice for Israeli-Japanese business relations. He later continued this practice at the law firm Weksler Bregman.
Ron Salpeter has authored dozens of articles in publications of the Israel Bar Association, where he also lectures, as well as in Globes and Haaretz.
Ron holds an LL.B. from Tel Aviv University and completed arbitration training at Bar-Ilan University. He speaks English, French, and Japanese, having studied and worked over the years in the United States, Europe, Japan, and Israel.
