Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) board of directors today elected Adv. Harel Locker as chairman of the board. The appointment is still pending final approval by the Israeli government's Companies Authority Appointments Committee, as well as the Minister of Defense Avigdor Liebermann and the Minister of Finance Moshe Kahlon.
Harel Locker served as Director-General of the Prime Minister’s Office from 2011 to 2015. Under his responsibilities were planning, implementation and execution of the government’s socio-economic policies and programs and the approval of Israel's state budget, including the defense budget. He led many international partnerships and strategic national programs such as the relocation of central IDF bases to the Negev and the establishment of the Israeli National Cyber Authority.
Since ending his term as Prime Minister’s Office Director-General, Locker has, for the past two years, been involved in investment banking and the provision of business and legal consultation services. He serves as a director at a number of traded and private companies in the fields of technology and finance, and as a senior partner in several law firms.
"I thank the company’s board and the ministers of Defense and Finance for the trust they have placed in me," Locker said today. "I am happy and proud for the opportunity of acting as Chairman of Israel’s largest Defense and Technology Company. IAI's contribution to Israel’s safety and security, over the years and today, is immense. Few companies in Israel have such a decisive impact and influence on the lives and security of the Israeli citizens. IAI is also Israel’s largest high-tech company with unbelievable capabilities and with many achievements in the development of Israel’s economy and in transforming the country into a pillar of technology. Just two weeks ago, these capabilities were demonstrated with the successful launch of two observation satellites into space, both developed by IAI. I believe that the company’s board of directors, its managers and its employees, will continue to lead IAI's development as a leading global business enterprise in its fields of expertise, for the benefit of the State of Israel, the company and its employees."
