DIRECTORY TO ISRAELI AUTOMOTIVE AND MOBILITY STARTUPS DIRECTORY TO ISRAELI AUTOMOTIVE AND MOBILITY STARTUPS JANUARY 2021 1 DIRECTORY TO ISRAELI AUTOMOTIVE AND MOBILITY STARTUPS Israel has emerged as a hotbed of innovation in the automotive and mobility worlds as well as the broader business of making things. According to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, the Startup Nation in 2018 contributed 4.94 percent of its gross domestic product to R&D — more than any other member country. Automakers including Ford, BMW, Volkswagen and Hyundai have invested in Israeli companies. So have suppliers such as Bosch, Denso and Continental. Among technology giants, Intel and Google have made the acquisition of Israeli startups part of their strategies to bolster their automotive and mobility investments. Collectively, these young companies are at the center of advanced automotive developments as well as cloud computing, 3D printing, predictive sensing, the Internet of Things, augmented and virtual reality and a host of other Industry 4.0 technologies that are helping multinational corporations improve their performance. With that in mind, Automotive News is publishing its first directory of Israeli startups. The 54 companies represented here all responded to an Automotive News survey and are part of a broader community. Our intent is simple: to deliver a resource our readers can use to begin to navigate this increasingly important world.

  • Emergency in Israel

    Emergency in Israel

    Emergency in Israel Emergency Update on Jewish Agency Programming May 16, 2021 The recent violent events that have erupted across the country have left us all surprised and stunned: clashes with Palestinians in Jerusalem and on the Temple Mount; the deteriorating security tensions and the massive barrage of missiles from Gaza on southern and central Israel; and the outbreak of unprecedented violence, destruction, and lynching in mixed cities and Arab communities. To say that the situation is particularly challenging is an understatement. We must all deal with the consequences of the current tensions. Many of us are protecting family, coworkers, or people under our charge while missiles fall on our heads night and day, forcing us to seek shelter. We have all witnessed the unbearable sights of rioting, beating, and arson by Arab and Jewish extremists in Lod, Ramla, Acre, Kfar Qassem, Bat Yam, Holon, and other places. As an organization that has experienced hard times of war and destruction, as well as periods of prosperity and peace, it is our duty to rise up and make a clear statement: we will support and assist populations hit by missile fire as we did in the past, after the Second Lebanon War and after Operations Cast Lead and Protective Edge. Together with our partners, we will mobilize to heal and support the communities and populations affected by the fighting. Our Fund for Victims of Terror is already providing assistance to bereaved families. When the situation allows it, we will provide more extensive assistance to localities and communities that have suffered damage and casualties.

    Sderot – the Central Hesder Yeshiva and the “Shluchot” Revolution!

    Sderot – The Central Hesder Yeshiva and the “Shluchot” Revolution! The Torah Revolution in Sderot The Central Max and Ruth Schwartz Hesder Yeshiva of Sderot was founded over 15 years ago and now has more than 400 students. The rapid growth of the Yeshiva despite the thousands of missiles aimed at Sderot, together with the construction of a magnificent campus has served to strengthen the spirit of all the residents and uplift the status of Torah throughout the region. Over the years Sderot has become just about the largest Hesder Yeshiva in Israel and is blessed with a very high religious and scholastic level. 400 strong in the main study hall Unique Outreach Affiliate Institutions The Rosh Yeshiva, Rabbi David Fendel, a literal powerhouse behind so many local projects - both spiritual and material – came on Aliyah from the United States to build both his home and a world of Torah in Sderot. In addition to building our main Hesder institution, Rabbi Fendel led a true revolution in the yeshiva world when he insisted on establishing and receiving official recognition for 2 affiliate institutions (“Shluchot” in Hebrew) serving a more varied clientele than other Hesder Yeshivot. Rav Fendel believed that with the right approach, with a warm and unique staff it would be possible to reach out and attract graduates of regular religious high schools and turn them into proud Torah-true Jews and soldiers imbued with deep faith and self- sacrifice. To achieve this goal Sderot has established two affiliates– Yeshivat Lev La’Daat also in Sderot led by Rabbi Shlomo Binyamin now numbering about 130 students and Yeshivat Derech Chaim in Kiryat Gat headed by Rabbi Amir Maman with over 70 students.

    How Management of the Length of Stay of Shelter Animals Can Influence the Capacity of an Animal Shelter and Save More Lives Van Der Leij, W.J.R

    The 41st Symposium of Veterinary Medicine: Animal Welfare Koret School of Veterinary Medicine, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel Kindly sponsored by Lynne and Phil Himelstein, USA INVITED LECTURES How Management of the Length of Stay of Shelter Animals can Influence the Capacity of an Animal Shelter and Save More Lives Van der Leij, W.J.R. Department of Companion Animals, Shelter Medicine program, Utrecht University, The Netherlands Shelters are trying their best to get as many animals released alive by returning them to their owners, getting them adopted, relocated or returned to the wild. From the first day of intake into an animal shelter however, the days are counting for a shelter animal. The Length of Stay (LOS) per animal is a crucial factor for its wellbeing, for an increased LOS will negatively affect the physical and behavioral health of the animal. And when animals get ill, their treatment even prolongs their shelter stay while it impairs their welfare. For health and welfare reasons animals should spent the shortest time possible in animal shelters. The LOS per animal can be influenced by adjustment of the intake and rehoming procedures combined with improvements of preventive health management. A decrease in the LOS can result in a decrease in the daily shelter population, in healthier animals, lower shelter care costs per animal and an increase in the shelter’s capacity to save lives. Outbreak Management of Infectious Diseases in Animal Shelters Van der Leij, W.J.R. Department of Companion Animals, Shelter Medicine program, Utrecht University, The Netherlands The principle of offering care and shelter to homeless animals is intrinsically connected with the increased risks of outbreaks of infectious diseases.
