TECHNOLOGY MADE IN ISRAEL

cover:“Sabra” - Hebrew for the prickly pear or cactus fruit found throughout Israel. The sweet fruit of the Opuntia plant can be found in the most arid of areas due to their capacity for water retention and nutrient extraction from dry soils.

WHAT MAKES ISRAEL THE PERFECT SPACE FOR START-UPTECHNOLOGIES?

Israel is a space where a little investment yields big returns

Making scant resources go far, overcoming limitations of time and space, out-of-the-box thinking, and the freedom to move ahead of the game, are all qualities of the Israeli innovation space. With a dramatic rise from last year, Israel is ranked #5 overall by this year’s Bloomberg Innovation Index.

Israel is ranked #2 in the world for venture capital funds right behind the US. With more than 3,000 high-tech companies and start-ups, Israel also has the highest concentration of high-tech companies in the world outside the Silicon Valley. Israel leads the world in the number of scientists and technicians in the workforce, with 145 per 10,000, as compared with 85 in the US and some 70 in Japan.

WHAT MAKES ISRAEL THE PERFECT SPACE FOR START-UPTECHNOLOGIES?

Technion is a microcosmWith Israel’s first Nobel Laureates in Science, Technion is ranked among the world’s top 100 universities. Home to 19 faculties, 8 multidisciplinary centers and over 45 research institutes, today Technion is a major factor in Israel’s global position as the “startup nation.”

Connecting entrepreneurs, scientists, alumni and innovators from across the Technion network, T3 - Technion technology transfer opens new channels for innovation, application and commercialization.

“What Stanford University is to Silicon Valley, the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology is to Israel’s booming tech sector.”-Wall Street Journal, Feb. 13th, 2015.

FOCUSED ON R&D

CROSS-DISCIPLI-NARYTHINKING

“We help launch Technion startups and accompany them in crossing the infamous valley of death - the space between conception and commercialization where so many wonderful ideas are lost.”

T³ is actively developing new strategies to help novel ideas cross the most perilous time in their existence, a kind of “twilight zone,” where some technologies are half baked and others are looking for market opportunity. It’s a time-frame during which groundbreaking ideas are not yet fundable by mainstream private equity players.

From our new headquarters at the Malat Building (Josepho Industrial Research Center) at Technion, T³ has become Technion’s technology transfer hub. Through our accelerators, we are engaging faculty, students, alumni, and entrepreneurs to advance innovation.

Cortica offers technologies for the recognition of images and videos. Its primary technology, CorTex, identifies objects and humans in multimedia clips and is able to mimic the behavior of human neural networks. In addition, Cortica offers Image2Text®, which can automatically extract core concepts in photographs, illustrations and videos, and map these concepts to keywords and textual taxonomies. The Cortica technology was developed by Prof. Yehoshua (Josh) Zeevi and colleagues.

We are focused on helping businesses grow. We come from business and we know how tricky it can be to launch a concept and break through.

That is why we consistently adapt commercialization strategies to the requirements of individual ventures. It is the underpinning of our success and we don’t think it can be done any other way. We help companies start-up through technology incubators, internal commercialization programs and a strong EIR (Entrepreneur In Residence) program. We also help technologies reach the market through licensing agreements to companies interested in the production and commercialization of Technion-generated technologies, products and services.

AMONG THE COMPANIES IN OUR PORTFOLIO

What’s next from Technion city? We invite you to take part in our informal meetups and programs and take part in our growing entrepreneurial community.

Watch out for Idea Wednesdays. Every last Wednesday of the month, T3 hosts leaders from Israeli high tech industry and investment community for drinks and mingling.

Believing is investing

During the past four years, Technion-originated companies have attracted investments exceeding $260 million. Such investments reveal the confidence of the investment community in the power and promise of emerging technologies from Technion.

At T3, we walk the talk. The $10 million Technion Investment Opportunities Fund was established in 2011 to invest in Technion’s portfolio companies. Since its establishment, the fund has invested in 10 dynamic ventures, among them Applied Immune Technologies (AIT), Eloxx Pharmaceuticals, Regentis Biomaterials, Corindus Vascular Robotics and Avraham Pharmaceuticals.

INVEST-MENT

OPPORTU-NITY

Technion Investment Opportunities Fund

Technion technologies are on the map of global investment opportunities.

Based on the technology developed at the laboratory of Prof. Yoram Reiter, Applied Immune Technologies (AIT) is a drug development company specializing in T-Cell Receptor-Like (TCRL) antibodies that are targeted to intracellular-derived peptides for a variety of therapeutic and diagnostic applications.
