The past week has seen a string of hot news items, featuring Israel’s high tech sector. SunRay, heavily involved in Israel’s solar energy industry, has been bought for nearly US$300m by Sun Power.  DSPG is set to gain big time from the iPad era. Oracle has bought Comvergin. And so the list goes on.

Israel will hold 3 mega conferences in 2010 to enhance its global status in high tech. This week, Eilat will host of 2,000 delegates to its annual cleantech fest. In June, the roadshow moves to Tel Aviv, where Biomed will show off Israel’s latest contributions in nanotech and medical devices.

And I have just read of a fantastic opportunity later on in June 2010. Several thousand participants are expected in Jerusalem for an event which will link start ups with venture capital groups.

I guess that it is smart money that finds smart people to invest in.
