Israel is considered a world leader in cyber technology and innovation, exporting cybersecurity worth $3.8 billion in 2017 and is ranking among the top 10 percent in cyber academic research.
In the span of just a decade, Netanyahu said, the world’s top ten largest companies have all opened 'major' research and development centers in Israel, among them Apple, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, and Facebook.
'I decided several years ago to turn Israel into one of the five cyber powers of the world and that required allowing this combination of military intelligence, academia, and industry to converge in one place. And where we’re doing that is in Beersheba in the south,' Netanyahu said.
Last year, the Israel Innovation Authority, the Ministry of Economy and Industry, and the National Cyber Directorate announced a dedicated program to strengthen the country’s cyber industry with an investment of NIS 90 million over the next three years.
A significant portion of the investment has been earmarked for further enhancing Beersheba’s CyberSpark Baksheesh hub.
