Israel Export Institute delegation with 30 climate-tech companies to represent Israel at Climate Week in NY
The delegation will meet with strategic investors, including venture capital funds, investment banks, and large corporations seeking cutting-edge solutions in climate-related fields, such as energy, construction, and infrastructure.
A delegation of approximately 30 Israeli climate-tech companies and startups traveled to New York this week to participate in Climate Week. The delegation is led by senior officials from the Israel Export Institute, in collaboration with the Foreign Trade Administration of the Ministry of Economy, the Israel Innovation Authority, and the Planetech organization. The delegation will meet with strategic investors, including venture capital funds, investment banks, and large corporations seeking cutting-edge solutions in climate-related fields, such as energy, construction, and infrastructure. They will also engage with government bodies involved in infrastructure.
According to data from the Export Institute, which assists Israeli entrepreneurs and companies with global marketing and opening markets worldwide, there are currently around 300 climate-tech companies operating in Israel. Notably, 13% of these companies were founded in the past three years. During the first half of 2024, investment in the sector reached approximately $500 million, a significant recovery from the $100 million invested during the second half of 2023. Over the past four years, the climate-tech sector has raised around $7 billion, accounting for roughly one-tenth of the total investments in Israeli tech companies.
Climate Week in New York serves as a gathering point for scientists, leaders, and citizens, all united in the goal of accelerating the transition to clean energy and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come. For Israeli innovation and the local climate-tech industry, this event offers an important platform to showcase the latest technologies and innovations with a meaningful impact on the planet.
Avi Balashnikov, Chairman of the Israel Export Institute, said, "Despite the complex security challenges Israel faces on multiple fronts, Israeli technology remains strong and continues to provide innovative solutions to the world. Our delegation to Climate Week in New York represents the best knowledge, technology, and capabilities Israel has to offer in the global fight against climate change, particularly in areas such as renewable energy, water management, and smart agriculture."
