Next October
As part of the summit we will also be launching the very meaningful project initiated by former minister Izhar Shay and his family, who lost their son and brother Yaron on the first day of fighting. The initiative set a target to assist with establishing 1,200 new Israeli startups in memory of all the victims of the October 7th war, helping to revive the high-tech sector and creating thousands of jobs.
Startup Showcase
RESTART IL. ECONOMY is aimed at starting the urgent process of restarting the investment cycle in the Israeli high-tech sector by enabling Israeli startups and entrepreneurs to meet with UK based private and institutional investors to create investment opportunities in an environment of support and solidarity.
30 Israeli Startups, active in different fields and that are in different stages, will participate and showcase their companies - as part of the plenary and in breakup sessions according to themes
The Curator Committee
To enable an effective and expedited process of selection exceptional of startups for this investor summit in London,
Dr. Nimrod Kozlovski, Founder of Cytactic, called on his friends to volunteer - and managed in no-time to put together an exceptional panel of curators for the evaluation and selection process. These curators are esteemed figures in the high-tech industry and venture capital funds, bringing with them a wealth of contacts, experience and insights and most importantly a deep sense of commitment to the agenda of RESTART IL. ECONOMY.
