Yonatan Daon: Partnerships & Strategic Relationships

I help founders, institutions, and cultural projects build the relationships they need to grow: universities, archives, donors, and high-value partners.
From the Ayn Rand Institute and Ayn Rand Center Israel to an ambitious global university startup and the Civic Forum for Israeli Policy, I’ve spent the last years opening doors, building trust, and keeping complex relationships moving.

Partnerships, Not Campaigns

Strategic Partnerships & Business Development

I identify and approach the right organisations and individuals—universities, archives, companies, cultural institutions—and move them from first contact to concrete collaboration.

Institutional & Academic Outreach

I work with deans, professors, department heads, and administrators to explore pilots, joint programmes, and content partnerships. This includes research, cold outreach, calls, and ongoing relationship management.

Donor & Stakeholder Relations

I help non-profits and mission-driven projects build serious relationships with donors and key supporters: structured outreach, cultivation, and clear, honest communication that respects everyone’s time and values.

Strategy & Narrative for Founders and NGOs

For projects like the Civic Forum for Israeli Policy, I work on overall strategy, business development and fundraising, and help clarify the story so that partners and donors immediately see why it matters.

Selected Collaborations & Ventures

A few of the projects and organisations I’ve been closely involved with:
  • Ayn Rand Institute (USA) – Outreach, partnerships and donor development with an international network of supporters, universities and think tanks

  • Ayn Rand Center Israel – Local partnerships, events, and relationship-building with academics, students, and cultural institutions in Israel.

  • Civic Forum for Israeli Policy – Working with Tamir Dortal (Al Hamashmaot Podcast) on strategy, business development, and securing fundraising for a long-term platform to influence Israeli policy and public debate.

  • XG / Global University (EdTech) – Built and managed an institutional partnership pipeline including the U.S. National Archives, UCL London, and leading Israeli universities.

  • Other digital projects – Previously built WordPress / WooCommerce sites and digital assets for small businesses and organisations. Today this is secondary; it simply helps me understand the technical and branding side of what my partners are trying to achieve.
