EFI (Electronics for Imaging) founder Efraim "Efi" Arazi has died at the age of 76.
Arazi created his namesake company in 1988 after a 20-year career as the founder, president and CEO of the first Israeli high-tech firm, Scitex Corporation. He served as chairman, president and CEO of EFI until 1994, guiding the business from modest beginnings, with 18 employees in North Beach, San Francisco. Under his leadership and technical guidance, EFI launched Fiery, the printing industry's first colour server, in 1991.
