Start-Up Nation Central (SNC) Launches UAE-IL Tech Zone, The First UAE And Israel Innovation Community, In Collaboration With Nobex, Hybrid, And Fusion LA

Start-Up Nation Central (SNC), Nobex, Hybrid and Fusion LA announce today the launch of the UAE-IL Tech Zone – the first community of its kind, established after the Abraham Accords were signed. The aim of the community is to connect between the innovation-technology-business ecosystem in Israel and its UAE counterpart.

The new community was founded by Noa Gastfreund, managing director of Hybrid, an accelerator for early-stage start-ups with at least one of its founders from the Arab community; GuyKatsovich, co-founder of Fusion LA, which helps Israeli technology ventures penetrate the U.S. market; and Basil Farraj, CEO of the start-up Nobex Technologies.

The exclusive community already includes more than 1000 people in the business, innovation and technology sectors, investors, developers, and government entities from both countries. The community connects between investors and entrepreneurs from both countries and helps Israeli entrepreneurs to deepen their understanding of the business and innovation culture in the UAE.

The community currently runs on LinkedIn, and in the near future the members expect to join physical meetings via delegations to both countries, workshops, round tables, conferences, and relevant activities to emphasize the strengths that each country brings. During 2021 the community will move to a dedicated digital platform that will enable its members to hold discussions in intimate forums, including high-tech investments, fintech, cyber, agriculture, smart transportation, and more.

"The purpose of the community is to provide a cultural and business bridge between the two countries through innovation and technology," says Michal Seror, Start-Up Nation Central Director of Community Development. "Our experience proves that communities are one of the most successful levers for promoting business cooperation. We invite entrepreneurs, senior business executives and government officials, and technology companies to join our exclusive community."
