Serge Tiroche was born in Israel in 1966 and grew up with art. His father was a highly respected gallery owner and dealer in New York, Tel-Aviv and Paris.

In 1992, Serge helped with the establishment of Tiroche Auction House in Israel and has since been closely involved with the family’s international Art trading activity.

In 2008, after 10 years career with Citigroup’s Private Bank as a managing director for Israel and Turkey, Serge left the firm in order to dedicate himself to what had become his lifetime mission: bridging art collecting and financial investment. He founded START, Israel's artist incubator project and Serge Tiroche Consultants, a financial services consultancy with focus on art.
