Israel is a leading global innovator in the life sciences arena, ranking first in the world in the number of scientists per capita. One third of R&D investments in Israel is devoted to the life sciences. Today, more than 700 companies in Israel are engaged in research and development in the fields of biotechnology, medical devices and healthcare IT. And recognized as world-class problem solvers. Together with government support, university R&D, private investment and a robust incubator environment, approximately 70 new life sciences companies are being formed every year to help redefine the outer boundaries of what is possible.
