Israel, a land flowing with AI and autonomous cars

I recently led a group of 20 American tech investors to Israel in conjunction with the UJA and Israel's Ministry of Economy and Industry. We witnessed firsthand the innovation that has produced more than $22 billion of investments and acquisitions within the past year. We met with the University that produced Mobileye, with the investor that believed in its founder, and the network of every multinational company supporting the startup ecosystem. Mechatronics is blooming in the desert from the CyberTech Convention in Tel Aviv to the robotic labs at Capsula to the latest in autonomous driving inventions in the hills of Jerusalem. Sitting in a suspended conference room that floats three stories above the ground enclosed within the "greenest building in the Middle East," I had the good fortune to meet Torr Polakow of Curiosity Lab.
