The country itself was kind of a start up!

They are tech capital because of the free trials from skillshare

You hit on the fact that Israelis have to do military service, but this is often misunderstood. It does not means you have to be a combat soldier. You can do other things like mechanics, logistics, security, cyber security or even offensive cyber stuff. The last two are a huge reason why Israel is a powerful force in the cyber security world.

Not having oil is kind of a blessing, it forced them to get creative and not rely on finite resources.

a man:

a gamer:
the legitimacy of the state of israel

Juz look at their Iron Dome defence system, it's insane

I would like to point out another reason for Israel's success in technology. From an early age, the government provides talented children the opportunity to study physics or computer science at the university and after graduation, they join the army and serve in technological positions. After they are released from the army, the large technology companies get them to work for them, and pay a lot of money, even to the beginners.

Israel: tech capital
Every video game: we need more servers in the US
The entire middle east and africa: am i a joke to you?

Israel is a tech capital because it uses skillshare.

[omricohen]

as an israeli there is more factors like when I was in the army I was serving in an elite cyber security team and in there I learned and did things no place can teach you, 7 months before I ended my serve I was already signed in to a job next thing I know 5 of my friends was recruited with me to the same company I don't have a degree just a course from the army and the experience from there.

Point of order: the mandatory military service had been cut to 2y8m, and the army footage shown is of Russian forces, not Israeli.

[moiquiregardevideo]

I learned Hebrew language because, living in Quebec, French and English was not enough to get any job.
Then Japanese, then Chinese then, finally, I got a job in Bay Area.
Knowing these languages didn't help. C language, the Borland dialect, is what saved my life.

[fostertiersky]

I've been to Israel. So THATS why they didn't stamp my passport

[habib]

Literally 70% of the comments: they are successful cause of skillshare
30%: we came here for the comments

[jonikles]

Israel: I'm a Tech Capital!
Gaming Servers: ye k watever man.

[comprendays]

I can tell the dislikes are coming from certain people who don't believe in a certain country

Welcome to the peaceful war zone known as the ISRAEL COMMENT SECTION!

[Star_boi-ty]

I went to Israel for an entrepreneurship course between my university in Canada and Technion University. From my experience, I was a witness to the ingenuity, resilience and hardworking ethic of Israeli startups. By learning a bit of their history, it isn't hard to see that such an attitude came out of necessity as their best resource and capital were their people and ideas. Its an amazing country with rich history, beautiful, welcoming people and a lot of energy.
