We had various speakers from the industry talking to our audience about autonomous vehicles and smart mobility. The Israeli automotive sector is becoming a powerhouse in certain areas, with the vast majority of new businesses focusing on smart mobility. One of the speakers also mentioned "The Mobility market has undergone major technological disruption in recent years. Propelled by innovation, it is driven by the primary goal of reducing the cost of transportation through the all-important trinity of Shared, Autonomous, and Electric vehicles ". The best part of working with Israelis is the way they look at a problem, their creative approach to see things and build businesses around that is impeccable. Also, not to forget the most important thing that I have heard here is to -Think big, think global."

11.01.2022 Our adventurers meet with Tel Aviv Landing Pad Manager Omri Wislizki from the Australian Landing Pad's Federal Government initiative who help Aussie startups sc...ale-up globally Bachelor of Science (Honours) student, Jack Kelso-Ribbe reflects, "The Tel Aviv Landing Pad was great! It has been fantastic to immerse ourselves in the ecosystem thus far, and I can see why Australians are keen to get a bite of the tenacity and drive that Israelis seem to feed on! Meeting Omri in Silicone Wadi highlighted the strengths of Israel and he had some great teachings for joining startup ecosystems. Namely, every startup has a product, but its the dream that matters. Sell this in 30 seconds and youll keep audiences engaged. He also stressed for startups to think global from day one; those who dont, will probably fail. This speaks to the vision of the Landing Pad network, and its exciting to see the potential growth that can come from such initiatives."
