Webinar: Global Opportunities in AI: Connecting the Israeli Ecosystem to the International Arena

DatA-IL took part in a webinar hosted by the Israel Innovation Authority in collaboration with ISERD, C4IR, and MINDS AI, focusing on international opportunities for the Israeli AI ecosystem.

The webinar discussed ways in which startups, industry companies, academic institutions, and public organizations can engage with global AI initiatives and platforms. The session presented programs and tools connecting the Israeli ecosystem with leading international frameworks, alongside an overview of national initiatives and potential collaborations.

During the session, several AI initiatives and tools available to Israeli companies were presented, along with the activities of the DatA-IL community in promoting data-driven collaborations and funding opportunities through Horizon Europe.

The webinar also introduced the MINDS AI initiative by the World Economic Forum, which focuses on organizations that have successfully implemented AI solutions at scale and created measurable impact in processes, business models, or public policy. In addition, the role of C4IR Israel was presented, highlighting its work in connecting the local ecosystem to global initiatives as part of the World Economic Forum’s network of Centers for the Fourth Industrial Revolution.

Special Webinar: From Academia to the High-Tech Industry as Data Scientists

DatA-IL hosted a special webinar together with From PhD to Industry, where two former academics and current data professionals shared their personal journeys from academia to the data and AI industry.

Roy Yanovsky talked about his transition from marine biology to data science through hands-on work, a bootcamp, and an industry internship — which became his entry point into high-tech.

Matan Goldstein emphasized that the path is not always linear, and that the key is not just learning new skills — but translating and properly positioning the skills we already have in the language of the industry. In the end, what matters most are delivery, communication, and impact.

We also discussed the key data roles:
Data Analyst | Data Scientist | Data Engineer | ML / AI Engineer, and more.

Thanks to everyone who joined — and for those who missed it, the webinar summary and recording can be found here:

From Pitch to Partnership - Investor meeting

“I never heard a customer ask a company whether they have a moat.”

That line kicked off one of the most fascinating discussions we’ve had about early-stage investment in AI companies.

DatA-IL Innovation community brought together four leading VCs to give founders honest, practical advice on a question many are grappling with: How do you truly differentiate your AI company when it feels like everyone is building one?
Do you go broad and experiment across use cases – or focus relentlessly on solving one specific problem better than anyone else?
The conversation was candid, insightful, and refreshingly grounded in real-world experience.

Smart Agent Hackathon

Smart Agent is a unique, long-term program that enables teenagers (grades 8–12), with no prior background in AI or coding, to design and build real AI agents in one of today’s most innovative fields.

The program spans 3 months and combines learning, hands-on creation, and mentoring by industry professionals. Participants work in teams on AI-based solutions for social challenges, gaining practical technical skills and confidence to create in the age of AI. The process includes three in-person hackathons. Today, more than 300 students in 75 teams from Jerusalem and Ashdod are participating, with plans to expand to additional locations soon.

The next two meetups in Jerusalem: Meetup #2 – January 19, Meetup #3 – March 16.
