Israeli Startups Make a Big Impact at RESI

Israel is frequently referred to as ‘The Startup Nation,’ with a lot of innovative technologies being developed in a multitude of sectors, including in healthcare. Over the past year, LSN has worked with the Israel Ministry of the Economy, the Israel Export Institute, the Israel Innovation Authority, the New England-Israel Business Council and several incubators and accelerators within Israel to bring these companies into the global RESI ecosystem.

In the 4 RESIs that have taken place so far in 2019, about 20 Israeli companies have been selected as finalists in the Innovation Challenge, with a few companies among the winners of these conferences. Yesterday, at RESI Boston, a group of these Israeli companies came to meet with the global investor attendees, including Novotalk, 1st place winner at RESI SF, PhotoPill Medical, 2nd place winner of RESI Europe, and Resmetrix, 3rd place winner yesterday. We look forward to seeing many more exciting companies from Israel at future RESIs, and hope that they will be as successful as the companies that have attended so far!
