From New York City Hall to Israeli tech: Eric Adams joins TurboGen

TurboGen Ltd., an Israeli developer and manufacturer of multi-fuel microturbines for distributed power generation, announced that it has entered into a strategic business consulting and development agreement with a group that includes former New York City Mayor Eric Adams.
As part of the agreement, Adams will join TurboGen’s Advisory Board and provide strategic guidance while supporting the company’s business development and market-access efforts.
The collaboration is aimed at supporting TurboGen’s expansion in the United States and international markets by increasing access to strategic customers and partners and creating new commercial opportunities for its distributed power-generation technology.
Adams is also expected to assist TurboGen with strategic introductions and represent the company in US media and other external forums.
“We are very pleased to welcome Mayor Eric Adams and the Strategic Group to TurboGen," said Yaron Gilboa, Chief Executive Officer of TurboGen. “We believe their decision to collaborate with us and their confidence in our technology and vision represent an important milestone for the Company. We believe their experience, relationships, and market access can significantly enhance our ability to accelerate commercial development in the United States and internationally."
Under the agreement, the strategic group will work with TurboGen to identify, develop, and facilitate relationships with potential customers, distributors, strategic counterparties and other business partners.
The company said the collaboration is intended to create commercial opportunities for its multi-fuel microturbine systems in applications including commercial and residential buildings, hotels, nursing homes, data centers and distributed and off-grid energy applications.
Adams served as the 111th Mayor of New York City from 2022 to 2025 and as Brooklyn Borough President from 2013 to 2021. His experience includes public leadership, economic development, stakeholder engagement and relationships across the public and private sectors.
“This collaboration goes beyond traditional business development," Gilboa added. “We see it as an opportunity to build a long-term strategic platform for TurboGen’s international growth. Having Eric Adams join our Advisory Board, together with the capabilities and relationships of the Strategic Group, strengthens our ability to connect our technology with customers, partners, and strategic stakeholders around the world."
“I am joining Turbogen’s Advisory Board because I found a company addressing a critical need for resiliency and decentralized power generation, with technology that has significant potential across multiple markets in North America and beyond," Adams said.
“Generating power where it is needed, with fuel flexibility and applications ranging from data centers to residential and commercial buildings, makes Turbogen stand out to me. I believe there is a substantial opportunity to bring this technology to a much wider customer base, and I look forward to helping the Company build the relationships that can turn that potential into massive growth."
