| − | :"Efi Arazi, a leading international high-tech entrepreneur, is responsible for significant breakthroughs in both technology and business. While he was a student at MIT in 1969, Efi built the camera the Apollo 11 crew used to broadcast the first pictures of the moon (NASA continued to use Efi's camera until 1995.) When he was only 25, Efi invented a revolutionary auto-focus mechanism, establishing himself as one of the most respected figures in the electro-optics industry. After returning to Israel, he established the Scitex company, which introduced the first digital pre-press computer and CCD scanner to the world in 1979. These achievements turned Scitex into a world leader in digital printing with a sales record of more than $10 billion".

The company invented a unique controller and program that made it possible to turn any copy-machine into a high-quality color printer, becoming an immediate success. EFI sold more than a million controllers and today employs approximately 1,000 people in 18 countries. Efi currently serves as chairman of the Israeli company SeeRun, which developed a new technology to monitor and manage business processes.

| − | In addition to his accomplishments, only some of which are mentioned above, we are proud that Efi decided to give his name and support to the Computer Science School at the Interdisciplinary Center Herzliya. Efi's vision and pioneering ability have made their mark on our school. We feel a profound obligation that the research and teaching achievements of the school's faculty and students live up to Efi's contribution and help prepare pioneering entrepreneurs in his spirit".
