As shown above, Israeli high-tech has grown significantly over the past decade. The sector has established itself as the economy’s shock absorber, especially during crisis periods, and has accounted for high proportions of the growth in Israeli GDP. Furthermore, it is clear that high-tech’s contribution to GDP and the economy stems primarily from the sector’s employees. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Investments in startups reached a peak in 2022. Since then, they have been in a downward trend which appears, as of now, to have been curbed. A similar negative trend characterized the indices relating to the number of available jobs in the sector. In other words, the heights of 2021-2022 were the exceptions and Israeli high-tech appears to have returned to the long-term trends that characterized it during the years that preceded this growth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This situation touches on a series of issues relating to the trends that will characterize Israeli high-tech in the coming years, and how these trends will impact the growth of the Israeli economy in general. These issues will be discussed in this section of the report.
