Global Tech Leaders Rally Behind Israel’s High-Tech Sector Through New Tech Mission

In an innovative move to bridge the gap between global technology leaders and Israel’s burgeoning high-tech scene, David Siegel, the former CEO of Meetup and Investopedia, has launched the Israel Tech Mission. This initiative aims to emulate AIPAC’s success in political engagement by facilitating monthly missions focused on high-tech, biotech, and fintech sectors. The missions have attracted investors and founders worldwide, offering them a firsthand look at Israel’s technological advancements and the challenges it faces, particularly amid ongoing conflicts.

The second mission highlighted the work of entrepreneurs like Dr. Ziv Peremen, co-founder of X-trodes, who is pioneering wearable medical-grade skin patches for monitoring vital body signals. This and other innovations reflect the mission’s goal to democratize healthcare and other fields, proving the resilience and innovative spirit of the Israeli tech ecosystem even in times of war.

Participants, including US-based mental health company founder Esther Howard and Deloitte’s Alexandra Benedon, emphasized the critical role of technology in addressing both physical and mental health challenges, especially relevant during the Israel-Hamas war. The strong bond with Israel and the commitment to support its tech community were sentiments echoed by all participants, underlining the profound impact of the tech mission.
