Morris Kahn

Morris Kahn cofounded Amdocs, a customer-relationship management-and-billing software firm for large telecom outfits.

He sold nearly $1 billion worth of shares after Admocs went public in 1998.

A South African native, he lives on the Israeli coast and spends much of his time on a 100-foot yacht.

Through his Aurum Ventures, Morris invests in life sciences and clean-tech companies that he hopes will contribute to the wellbeing of the planet.

He currently serves as the chairman of SpaceIL, which attempted to send the first Israeli spacecraft to the moon in 2019.
