Israel is widely known as the Start-Up Nation, and recognized as a major player in the fields of innovation, R & D and entrepreneurship. In June 2016 Taglit-Birthright Israel launched The Innovation Center in partnership with The Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange. The exciting and cutting-edge Innovation Center allows participants to learn about the new advancements Israeli start-ups are making in such fields as science, space, medicine, security, transportation, agriculture and more. Each Taglit-Birthright Israel group that visits the Innovation Center begins by exploring the interactive exhibition, and continues with a one-on-one meet up with a leading Israeli entrepreneur.
Since the official launch in mid-2016 the center has welcomed about 80,000 visitors including 70,000 Birthright Israel participants and hundreds of local and international delegations.
