Champions of their nations
Israeli tech startups and German Mittelstand are champions of their respective nations. The German Mittelstand is known for its excellence in research, manufacturing and export while Israeli startups are masters of disruptive thinking and industry-transforming technologies. What could be a better idea than drawing these two frontrunners together?
#SNTM is doing just that: The initiative is powered by STARTPLATZ, the Israeli Innovation Authority and The Israel Economic and Trade Mission in Berlin, joined forces to accelerate innovation through collaboration and strengthen business ties between Germany and Israel.
