PART 1 ISRAELI’S IN THE UNITED STATES — HOW TO INVEST IN ISRAELI ENTREPRENEURS WITH COMPANIES LISTED ON THE NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE

With a Democrat Government in full force, many have predicted the golden years of US — Israel relations, spearheaded by Trump and Netanyahu would come to an abrupt end. However, US politicians that are supportive of Israel foe, the tyrannical Iranian regime, has given no indication that they will attempt to impede America and Israel’s excellent bilateral trade and investment relationship.

The United States is still the favorite nation for Israeli entrepreneurs to seek mergers and acquisitions for their technology businesses. With 600 such deals — of U.S. companies acquiring Israeli companies and vice versa — signed between 2010 and 2019. U.K. companies came in second with a little over 100 deals, and Germany made third place with 50.

Israel is ranked 1st in the world for innovative capacity and 1st in the world for entrepreneurship. Israel has the highest concentration of high-tech companies in the world (after Silicon Valley).

Over 300 multinational companies such as Microsoft, Motorola, Google, Apple, Facebook, Berkshire-Hathaway, Intel, HP, Siemens, GE, IBM, Toshiba and Cisco use Israel as an international hub for their innovation, research and development, all-round investment.

However many Israel supporting technology and business enthusiasts, are often left with the question, how do I buy a slice into these Israeli companies?
