Israel Is The Ultimate American Welfare State

"Brand Israel" propaganda is irrelevant. Israel still has no borders.

a few weeks later facebook snapped up its first israeli company, snaptu, which had launched a facebook mobile app a few weeks earlier, for a reported $70m. And rumours were growing in techie circles that conduit, a start-up based in rehovot that creates browser platforms for toolbars, is negotiating a $1bn deal, possibly with google or microsoft, that would be the biggest sale of an israeli internet firm so far.

Really? So that includes all of Israel?

Israel has never acquired any land or defined any borders. It sits inside Palestine's borders.

for the past 40 years, since eci telecom put down roots there, an enclave along israel’s coastal plain – which became known as silicon wadi (the arabic word for valley) – has become a hotspot of computing, surveillance, videogames, transport and other innovations. This hi-tech oasis, largely concentrated in tel aviv and smaller cities, is now home to companies such as microsoft, google, and many other household names, making it an important part of israel’s economy. Intel’s latest microprocessor was developed at its new $110m r&d centre in haifa, and intel israel has been responsible for developing the pentium and centrino chips which power most pcs around the world. According to official figures, israel’s hi-tech industries, which include the software, medical, electronic and advanced mechanical sectors, made up about 15% of the country’s $200bn gdp in 2009, and 40% of its exports.

The modern-day state of israel is a small country in the desert, constantly at war with its neighbours and with little in the way of natural resources. It has arguably had to live off its wits since its founding in 1948, becoming a pioneer in the field of desalination and a leading exporter of defence products. Toss in the influence of the israeli army intelligence corps’ technology units, world- class academic institutions such as the technion in haifa and the weizmann institute of science in rehovot, and the shared jewish experience of moving from place to place and starting afresh, and you can see where the nation’s resourcefulness stems from.

Three of last year’s m&a deals exceeded $200m and two were in the $100m-$200m range. The top 10 amounted to $1.4bn, 69% of the year’s total. The leading deals were 3m’s acquisition of attenti, estimated at $230m; mellanox’s $218m purchase of voltaire, a ra’anana-based provider of scale-out data-centre fabrics; and the $213m acquisition of network processer-maker wintegra by pmc-sierra, which already has a presence in israel.

More irrelevant "Brand Israel" crap from the Stoner

 

[P F Tinmore]

Think of Israel as a product undergoing an overhaul to make it more competitive in the marketplace. What's called for are fewer stories explaining the rationale for the security fence, and more attention to scientists doing stem-cell research on the cutting edge or the young computer experts who gave the world Instant Messaging.

That's an oversimplification of what is taking place, but in an effort to improve the Jewish state's image in America, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Jerusalem and Israeli officials in New York are working with a team of local business experts to de-emphasize the focus on Israel at war and promote the concept of a country whose medical, scientific and technological achievements bring value to Americans.

The campaign, called Brand Israel, is a strategic marketing effort formed more than a year ago but not made public until now, with seven business and research experts volunteering their expertise on behalf of the foreign ministry. It comes at a time when the foreign ministry, the perennial punching bag for critics of Israel's hasbara, or public relations, is under renewed scrutiny as the result of a highly rated reality series on Israeli TV, 'The Ambassadors.'

The final chapter of the Entrepreneurship Index focuses on Israel as an entrepreneurial country. Israel has more companies listed on NASDAQ than any other country except the US, in spite of the fact that the population of Israel is only 7.6 million. In addition, Israel has more civil engineers per capita than any other country in the world. In 2008, sixteen times as much venture capital was raised and more than four times as many patents were taken out in Israel as in Denmark. Israel’s acceptance to OECD cooperation this year and its inclusion in the international benchmark index from next year are commemorated by this profile chapter.

The chapter takes a closer look at a nation which is singled out as a model for others attempting to build up an entrepreneurial, innovative economy. There is actually a special “Israeli Model” which other countries already use as a source of inspiration. The lessons to be learned from Israel are threefold.

First, the public sector kick-started and thus decisively influenced the development of Israel’s entrepreneurial policy. By establishing the Office of the Chief Scientist (see Box 5.6) in the mid-1980s, with the infusion of massive public venture funding in the 1990s and the establishment of incubator environments at roughly the same time, the state gave a high priority to promoting new high-tech enterprises and facilitating the creation and diffusion of knowledge.

Second, Israel’s entrepreneurial policy is powered by an efficient public-private partnership. A number of schemes under the auspices of the Israeli Ministry of Industry, Trade and Labour support the interaction of public-sector business service centres with private-sector consultants so that new enterprises receive optimal advice.
