A group of nascent Israeli companies representatives have arrived in the UAE on a visit, organized by UAE-IL tech zone, a non-profit organization; the newly established Ministry of Industry and Advanced Technology, in association with Start – Up Nation Central, a new organization promoting Israeli innovation internationally.

UAE-IL tech zone, the non-profit that builds bridges between the Emirati and Israeli tech ecosystems, bought a delegation of unicorn and late-stage startups to the UAE recently. In partnership with Start-Up Nation Central, a philanthropic organization that promotes Israeli innovation on the global stage, and the UAE’s newly established Ministry of Industry and Advanced Technology, the delegation will focus on the FinTech, ClimateTech, and HealthTech sectors,(which are key) to the UAE’s tech development strategy and (in line) with the country’s 2030 vision.

During four days, Israel’s best of breed startups explored the UAE market, meet public and private stakeholders, shaping the country’s innovation scene through growth opportunities, talent solutions or investments.

“Since the signing of the accords, a considerable number of Israelis came to the UAE, with Expo as a focal point of discovery. We feel interest is very high on both sides, and sometimes entities need a hand to navigate through a new culture and ecosystem. This is why we are here: to make sure anyone slightly interested in the myriad of opportunities these accords created, have a partner from start to finish to develop mutually beneficial business and relationships between the UAE and Israel. Both our countries are small yet dynamic, this is why I firmly believe joining forces can only create life changing paradigms for our region” said Noa Gastfreund, UAE-IL tech zone’s co-founder.

Mohamed Al Qassim, Director of the Department of Technology Adoption and Development at Ministry of Industry and Advanced Technology said “We are extremely excited to welcome Israel’s leading start-ups to the UAE to showcase the strategic advantages and partnership opportunities available in our industrial and technological ecosystem. In line with the objectives of the National Strategy for Industry and Advanced Technology, the UAE is committed to developing a world-class environment for emerging technologies and the industries of the future, and we are confident we offer the right platform for Israeli entrepreneurs and innovators to scale their businesses – particularly in the fin-tech, sustainability and health-tech sectors.”
