What a great and inspiring evening we had last Monday! The Israeli and the Italian biotech communities got together to talk, learn, and inspire each other on one of the most impactful topics these days. We are sure that great collaborations will follow! After the two Consul Generals, Marco Sermoneta and Sergio Strozzi, provided an overview of the ecosystems, we enjoyed a informative panel with Sarah Benson-Konforty, MD, Mauro Ferrari, Rob Goldman, who shared their knowledge and experience about the industry's hottest topics. Thank you, Alberto Acito, for navigating between the speakers and the topics. Thank you, @INNOVIT and the staff members Alberto Acito, Jacopo Naidi Lidia Schwarz, for welcoming and hosting us in your beautiful space. We couldn't make it without our wonderful partners - Vitalba Gammicchia , CICC - California Israel Chamber of Commerce and Iris Aluf Medina.

Our Consul General Marco Sermoneta and the Economic Attachée Omer Fein met yesterday with the Secretary of the California Department of Food and Agriculture, Ms. Karen Ross, to explore agricultural partnerships between Israel and the State of California. California is a worldwide leader in agricultural production and innovation. More crops, such as almonds, grapes, and dairy, are produced in California than any other state in the US. Israel is a global leader in agricultural, water, and cleantech technologies and is proud to be the birthplace of major innovations in irrigation, precision agriculture, and robotics. Working together, California and Israel can change the world for the better and make dramatic progress toward solving difficult challenges like climate change and food insecurity. We are excited for the fruits of future collaborations between #California and #Israel.
