Adi Gigi (Hebrew: עדי גיגי; born on April 11, 1984) is an Israeli businesswoman and entrepreneur. She served as the inaugural director and general manager of Tesla in Israel between 2017 and 2023. In this role, Gigi led the efforts to transition Israel's auto industry to electric vehicles. In 2003 she became the first woman to graduate from the Israeli Naval Academy, as an electronics officer. She then went on to serve six years in the Israeli Navy, where she specialized in energy security. Following the discovery of the Tamar gas field off the shore of Israel in 2013, Gigi became a founding member of the natural gas production platform. This assisted the transition of the Israeli electricity sector from coal to natural gas, achieving Israel's energy-independence for the first time since its establishment. She was the first woman to build and lead an auto company in Israel. In 2021 Gigi was recognized by Israel's Globes Magazine as well as Calcalist Magazine as one of Israel's 100 most influential people.
