Top 50. Startups in Israel

Hallo zusammen,

Gestern feierte Israel seinen 68. Geburtstag und zu dem Anlass hat der Calcalist, eine führende Wirtschaftszeitung in Israel, eine Liste mit den 50 vielversprechenden Startups veröffentlicht. Die Liste wurde von lokalen VCs zusammengestellt, dass heißt sie ist nicht ganz objektiv 🙂 und die meissten Startups sind late-stage.
