| | NOVEMBER 2020 6EDITOR'S DESKIn a short time, Israel has evolved from a resource deficient country to a democratic and innovative state - en route to being a global leader. Today, Israel is widely known as the Startup Nation across the globe. It is providing the world with technological inventions ­ never seen before, ranging from drip irrigation and water creation technology to autonomous driving and breakthrough medical advancements. Interestingly, Israel has earned the nickname "Startup Nation" for an excellent reason--with a population of around 8.5 million, the country has produced the largest number of startups per capita globally, around one startup per 1,400 people. Achieving such feat has attracted companies with global outreach, including those in the airline industry. Besides, attention from established industries seems to have inspired a yes-we-can attitude among young professionals in Israel. As of now, the country has the highest number of startups per capita globally and is a leader in autonomous driving, cybersecurity, enterprise software, cleantech, and digital health. With thousands of startups, hundreds of investors, dozens of accelerators, and many other resources, the Israeli technology ecosystem continues to thrive, grow, and produce outsized success.Contributing to such monumental success, Israel is an entrepreneurial powerhouse and a hotbed for pioneering technologies, profitable business opportunities, and high investment returns, capable of swiftly translating market demands into organizational action accounts. StartupCity is presenting a special edition on startup organizations based in Israel. We hope this edition will add value to your business strategies and long-term goals.Let us know your thoughts!The Silicon Wadi: Powerhouse, Enough Said!
