"As the global security landscape continues to shift, Israel's defense industry is well-positioned to address the challenges and seize the opportunities presented," said Giora Shaked, CBO at Startup Nation Central. "Two key trends are driving startups toward the defense sector. First, the development of small and smart solutions that can be prototyped and developed by small teams rather than large projects requiring vast teams and facilities. Second, the economics of software and IP-based solutions versus hardware integration allow startups to achieve high gross margins with rapid growth models, aligning well with venture capital investment preferences".
"Driven by necessity and supported by a strong foundation, Israel's defense tech sector has evolved into a robust ecosystem and is world-renowned. Seamlessly blending military and civil applications, the sector includes novel technologies, innovative startups, and globally recognized aerospace and defense enterprise companies", said Ilana Sherrington-Hoffman, Global Partnerships at Startup Nation Central.
