Where We Are › Tel Aviv
Tel Aviv anchors our deep-tech and national resilience work, helping governments and enterprises identify, validate, and implement technologies from one of the world’s most dynamic innovation ecosystems.
In 2014, this was one floor: a place where deep-tech founders and the organizations looking for breakthrough technologies could stop emailing and start talking. It worked, and it became the model for every center we have built since.
Twelve years later, Tel Aviv remains at the heart of SOSA. It is where we connect some of the world’s most advanced technologies with governments and enterprises looking to solve complex, real-world challenges.
Through SOSA, we have developed successful strategic collaborations with tech startups, resulting in real and measurable business impact.

From breakthrough technology to real-world application
We design and run programs that help emerging technologies move from promising ideas to validated solutions, connecting companies with real challenges, expert guidance, and potential customers.
Finding the technologies worth acting on
We identify, assess, and validate emerging technologies for governments and enterprises, combining global scouting with deep technical and market expertise.
Turning technology into business impact
We work with enterprises to identify strategic technology opportunities, engage the right companies, and move promising solutions toward implementation.
Founders, experts, investors, and technology buyers
Our Tel Aviv center brings together the people building breakthrough technologies and the organizations looking to put them to work.
Israel is one of the world’s most concentrated deep-tech ecosystems, with exceptional strength across AI, cyber, advanced sensing, robotics, mobility, infrastructure, and other technologies built for complex environments.
Being embedded here gives SOSA direct access to the founders, researchers, technologies, and expertise shaping what comes next, and allows us to connect that innovation to challenges around the world.
Israel, in terms of startup density, is probably the highest in the world. The Israeli ecosystem is the best.
