The tremendous economic growth that was achieved through technological innovation in Silicon Valley is a model for imitation the world over. The goal of this summit is to help participants create successful 'Silicon Valleys' in their own regions.

Leading VC and Angel investors, serial entrepreneurs and government officials from around the world will share actual experiences and compare plans and strategies. Participants will have a unique opportunity to form active networks for continued collaboration after the summit.

Israel’s ‘Silicon Wadi’, with thousands of startups and over a hundred VC funds, is widely recognized as the most successful example of creating an innovation powerhouse outside Silicon Valley. This is why Silicom Ventures selected Israel as the host for its first International Summit on Investment and Entrepreneurship in the Global village.
