MGMT-UB 9087 Innovation and Entrepreneurship in Israel (Offered Fall '23):
The course explores the origins for the emergence of a vibrant technological entrepreneurial ecosystem in Israel. The course adopts five lenses to explain the remarkable burst in Hi-Tech startups in Israel during the last 25 years. These are: 1) The emergence of related and supporting industries often located in designated geographical clusters; 2) Specific strategies, structures, and corporate cultures; 3) The availability of suitable factors of production through Israeli academia, immigration, and the Israeli Defense Forces; 4) Adverse local demand conditions; and 5) the role of the Israeli government in seeding the conditions for the emergence of complementary financial sources, as well as creating supportive tax and intellectual property rights systems. The course will explore recent trends in the development of the Israeli Hi-tech industry and highlight possible constraints for its continued growth. Finally, the course draws wider conclusions as to the required conditions for seeding and nurturing similar technological entrepreneurial ecosystems in other countries around the world.
