Within the Israeli Innovation Authority, we are delighted to introduce the International Collaboration Division. With separate resources for Europe, the Americas, Asia-Pacific and Africa, as well as a desk responsible for multinational corporation collaboration, we aim to provide support with the help of the EU Framework Programme for Research and Innovation as well as bi-national funds and bilateral support for joint R&D and pilot programs.
We can provide matching between partners abroad and in Israel to help find the right collaboration opportunities for each individual or business. We organize meetings between foreign companies and the big names in investment, business or research. We can facilitate your participation in exhibitions and conferences, as well as put you in front of the people you’d love to meet.
This division by no means operates within a silo. In fact, they can be the bridge you need between an international connection and other Innovation Authority’s resources, such as incubators, accelerators and labs, or simply an introduction to another department that suits your project.
Whether you’re a multinational corporation, an entrepreneur, a foreign government or investor, a research institute or anything in between, here’s everything you need to know about current opportunities for global collaboration.
The United States, Canada and Latin America offer multiple opportunities for industrial R&D cooperation for Israeli companies. The International Collaboration Division in the Israel Innovation Authority generates and implements cooperative and bilateral industrial R&D programs with leading R&D entities, which provide the necessary bridge to enter international markets, get access to funding and receive assistance in partner matching.
Through R&D alliances, both Israeli and international companies not only benefit from the unique strengths and skills of their partner company, but also make the most of market opportunities unique to the others' region.
In addition, the MNC-Startup partnership initiative in Israel is facilitated through the Global Enterprise Collaboration Program.
The International Collaboration Division in the Israel Innovation Authority has recently launched it's Americas-Israel Innovation Networker , an exclusive online community made up of different entities including companies, investors, government agencies, service providers, etc, which aims to connect entities with shared interests and common goals in order to develop international partnerships, R&D collaborations, and new business opportunities.
Technological companies from all industry sectors that wish to develop or upgrade the development of products, services or manufacturing processes with a European partner are welcome to submit and participate in any of the program's Call for Proposals issued from time to time.
