The Start-UP MBA Program at the Technion

 

It's time to jumpstart (up) your career in Israel

 

In January 2014 Bloomberg named Israel as the best country in the world in terms of R&D Intensity. The top place is not a surprise as since the 1990's Israel has become a leading force of start-up and entrepreneurship. New software and technologies are developed in Israel all the time in various areas – software and hardware, bio-med and bio-tech, agriculture or food. For this reason, Israel became a preferable place among business students who wish to have insight into Israeli and international start-ups.
