Graduates from the Technion - Israel Institute of Technology have a significantly higher likelihood of founding a US-based unicorn company compared to graduates from other universities. It's fascinating to note that Technion alumni are 25 times more likely to achieve this feat. Following the Technion, Tsinghua University, Reichman University, INSEAD, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, and Tel Aviv University all share the next spot with a likelihood of 11.3. While this number is notably lower than the Technion's, it still indicates a considerably higher chance of founding a unicorn compared to graduates from universities not listed. This data underscores the strength of Technion in fostering entrepreneurial talent and its impressive track record in producing successful startup founders, particularly in the US market. I graduated for the Technion (D.Sc.) in 1993.

Do you participate in internal networking at work? How do you do it? GM Israel has over 800 employees, a small fraction of the 150,000 employees worldwide, but very large from an Israeli perspective. Even in the old-world, where people came to the office every day (do you remember when…), it would be difficult to actually develop cross-department relationships in such a large environment. Today, when everyone has a custom schedule of when/where they work, it is so much more difficult. To mitigate this issue, I joined an internal networking group at work. We meet face to face once a month for a group activity. There are plenty of opportunities to tell the group about yourself, both personally and professionally. The cost to join? Regular posting on social media (yes, you did notice that my feed woke up recently). This is a win/win for the company and the employees, where both sides gain multiple benefits. Posting professional(ish) on social media: * For the company, it brings positive publicity and awareness of the technologies that we are working on and specifically promotes the Israeli site to the global company * For the employee, it encourages/requires self promotion and publicity, which will help future career opportunities, both inside and outside of the company Internal networking is highly beneficial to both the company and employees, for mostly the same reasons. When employees are connected cross department, they hear about new initiatives from other teams that they might want to adopt and promote initiatives that they are working on. They share problems that they are dealing with and build coalitions to solve common issues. They learn from each other and participate in mentoring. They share career opportunities among each other and can pave the way for internal mobility. #iworkforgm #GMrs_lead

The concern over Israel's potential international isolation was a prominent topic at the defense technology (defense-tech) session held yesterday at the Technovation Conference by TheMarker and the Technion. Einat Weidberg, a partner at Shibolet, who participated in the panel, shared: "In the past few weeks, senior law firms in France have approached us to identify defense companies which may be interested to be represented in French courts and fight the decision to block Israeli access to the weapons conference in Paris”. Despite the fear of isolation, we are seeing today a tremendous increase in demand for security products, including from Israel. Einat mentioned that the previous major hype in the defense tech sector was the homeland security trend following the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. "The challenge of stratups in the defense field is to raise funds through their early stage and reach the growth stage, where they will become candidates for investments by large international VCs and private equity funds. If the Israeli echosystem will not be ready to invest in the defense tech start ups in their early stages, it will be very difficult for such companies to reach the growth stages, and their chances will decrease”.
