One on One - Part 2
summary
Israel shows VC per capita 2–3× US while 90% US money funds local venture deals, yet total capital remains tiny versus Silicon Valley and a shortage hits early-stage startups. Military-trained talent drives practical strength in cyber, Big Data, Mobility and semiconductors, yielding ideas that attract strategic R&D and acquisitions (Apple opened its first non-US R&D via acquisition recently; Facebook also bought a local firm). Political cycles force constant education of new US lawmakers; relationships stay strategically important.
