One common feature of nearly all these laws is that they aim to make capital available to entrepreneurs or make the economic return on investment (ROI) for investors more attrac- tive. This is largely due to the fact that capital is the one main ingredient to a successful technology sector that Israel has historically lacked. This article will focus primarily on the Israeli Law for the Encouragement of Industrial Research and Development, 1984 (the “R&D Law”), as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

  • MIT IPC Local Innovation Systems Working Paper 04-005
    Local Innovation Systems Project Systems Innovation Local Diffusion of Academic R&D Capabilitiesas an Industrial Innovation Policy? — The Development of Israel’s IT Industry LIS Working Paper 04-005 May 2004 The views expressed herein are the author’s responsibility and do not necessarily reflect those of the MIT Industrial Performance Center or the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Diffusion of Academic R&D Capabilities as an Industrial Innovation Policy? – The Development of Israel’s IT Industry Dan Breznitz Industrial Performance Center – MIT Media Lab Europe – Dublin, Ireland MIT Department of Political Science E38-105 292 Main Street, Cambridge, MA, 02139 Telephone: 617-2530144, Fax: 617- 2537570, email: [email protected] Abstract: In the last decade, three countries have figured prominently as cases of late-late developing countries that achieved worldwide success with their Information Technology (IT) industries: India, Ireland, and Israel. This paper focuses on the Israeli case and argues that unlike India and Ireland, Israel’s competitive advantage in the IT industries, is in Research and Development (R&D). The paper’s main arguments are that (a) the declared aim of Israel’s industrial policy has been to develop exactly such a system of innovation we see in Israel today; (b) however, these policies, focused on diffusion and not on creation of capabilities, were successful only because of the existence of an already sophisticated and extensive R&D capability in the universities – markedly different from other NICs. Looking at the present the paper concludes that the same operational model that led Israel’s IT industry to success might now be undermining its future growth.

The mission of the Institute is to research, identify and evaluate solutions for national problems in the areas of science and technology, education, economics, industry, and social development.

In Israel, as in many parts of the world, science and technology are major driving forces behind economic growth and prosperity, and are making a profound impact on almost all areas of society. As such, the Institute’s multi-disciplinary research activity is more important than ever before. To achieve its mission, the Institute undertakes sponsored research, organizes workshops and implements continuing education activities on topics of significance for the development of the State of Israel. It also maintains a publications program for the dissemination of research and workshop findings.

Goergen Professor of Entrepreneurship Doug Collom Adjunct Professor of Management Staff Member: Amy Hazen, Associate Director Location: Tel Aviv, Israel Dates/Times:* Sunday, September 6: 5:00pm – 9:00pm Monday, September 7: 8:30am – 6:30pm Tuesday, September 8: 8:00am – 6:30pm Wednesday, September 9: 8:00am – 6:30pm Thursday, September 10: 8:00am – 9:00pm *Specific times may vary as activities are scheduled Course Credit: 0.5 cu Course Theme: Venture Capital and Entrepreneurship in Israel In the last 25 years, Israel has gained prominence as one of the leading technology and innovation centers in the international community. With thousands of startups that flourish in the country today, Israel has more startups per capita than any other country in the world. Israel first achieved renown in the technology sector in the 1990s for its innovation in the semiconductor space, then moved heavily into software in the 2000s, and today is branching out into a range of sectors including: internet, mobile, big data, communication infrastructure, cyber security and defense technologies, enterprise software, agri-tech and health tech. As you might suspect, this growth faces a unique challenge; because Israel has a small domestic market, Israeli startups, by necessity, must look to international markets for growth. 08/10/2015 1 Course Objectives: This class will highlight the globalization of venture capital and entrepreneurship and concentrate on entrepreneurial finance, product-market strategy, organizational issues, and business models of Israeli technology companies.
