At Reddi, we seek to create a more innovative region, and that is why we partnered with Conexión Israel, an Israeli company with more than ten years of experience generating synergies with Latin America, to create the Israel Technology Mission 2022, a comprehensive immersion experience in the innovation ecosystem in Israel that allowed us to learn firsthand about the best practices and lessons learned from the main private, public and academic entities, as well as generate valuable connections with the Israeli ecosystem, distinguished by its innovation in areas such as high technology, medicine, agriculture, computing, cybersecurity and information.
The mission took place between November 5 and 12, 2022, and included the participation of the companies Red ValleSalud, Clinica Campbell, AgroAtlantida, Agrotechnology, Axon-lotl SAS and representatives from Universidad del Valle, Universidad Icesi and Universidad Ean.
Israel es uno de los países más innovadores del mundo – no en vano es conocido alrededor del mundo como la “Nación Start-Up” y personas de todo el planeta llegan a Israel para conocer el secreto detrás de su éxito en las últimas décadas.
La innovación israelí ha estado cambiando el mundo a través de los años, siendo responsable de algunas de las tecnologías más disruptivas y revolucionarias en áreas como alta tecnología, medicina, agricultura, computación, ciberseguridad e información.
A pesar de ser un país con solo 9 millones de habitantes y 73 años de existencia, el modelo israelí y su ecosistema se han convertido en referencia para el mundo entero.
The trip lasted eight days, from November 5 to 12, 2022, with a packed agenda of business visits, conferences, talks and tours specially designed to make the most of every minute of their stay in Israel.
