Raphael is the founder and CEO of A.Team, the world’s first team formation platform, which enables tech leaders to assemble flexible teams of top product, engineering, and design talent through its TeamGraph AI. A.Team’s vision for the future of work is backed by $60M in funding from investors like Insight Partners, Tiger, and Spruce House, future-of-work pioneers like Adam Grant, Dan Ariely and Joseph Fuller, cultural leaders like Jay-Z’s RocNation, and founders and execs from CAA, Apollo, Upwork, Fiverr, and SpaceX. Over 500 companies—from trailblazing startups like Sightful and Apprentice to enterprise innovators like Lyft, D-ID, and HCA—have gained a competitive edge with A.Team.
Raphael and A.Team are on a mission to change how we work for the better. Raphael founded BillGuard, the antivirus for bills (acquired by Prosper), co-founded BlockNation with Apollo Mgmt CEO Marc Rowan to invest in web3, and founded ITC, a not-for-profit for global tech upskilling. A decorated officer of IDF’s tech unit, he was named 30 under 30 by Forbes, and Global Shaper by the World Economic Forum.
