A two-day summit in Tel Aviv reveals how fast the country’s defense-innovation ecosystem is growing post-Oct. 7
A cluster of global companies gathered in Israel for DefenseTech Week, including a two-day summit that celebrated the growing impact of the sector and highlighted Israel’s rising role in the industry.
Surrounded by giant players such as Palantir, Lockheed Martin, and others, the event focused on Israel’s development of life-saving technologies and its preparations for global security challenges.
It is the second time Israel has hosted DefenseTech Week, demonstrating the sector’s longevity and securing Israel’s position as a leader in the field two years after the Oct. 7 attacks. The first day saw a collection of industry leaders, policymakers, and investors explore the trajectory of defense innovation, while the second day focused on emerging threats, global defense strategies and the tech shaping the changing security landscape.
