Monique Gillming
I had the privileged of managing several accounts with Itamar. We worked side by side building client relations, celebrating successes and growing global accounts. Itamar has an incredible ability to take complicated, detailed processes and break them down, putting the customer in the drivers seat and ensuring total adoption. Itamar has strong customer facing skills, he makes work fun and never leaves a project unfinished. Itamar is an "out of the box" thinker and is a driving force in securing strategic relationships that put us in a very strong market position. I looked forward to collaborating with Itamar everyday and will miss his partnership on my team very much. I highly recommend him as an achiever, maximizer and skilled communicator. If you're looking for a winner, Itamar is your man.

Sonic Vision is a digitally animated planetarium music show featuring 38 minutes of music from 17 different musical artists. As a fully digitally animated music show in a planetarium half-sphere video format, Sonic Vision is likely the first of its kind anywhere in the world. We purchased the license from the American Museum of Natural History (New York, USA) and adapted the music and technology to the Planetarium in the Eretz Israel museum in Tel Aviv. The show was seen by more than 20,000 people. Show less
