Gateway to Health Tech

A training program empowering physicians with the skills, knowledge, and connections to collaborate with the Israeli health tech ecosystem.

The health tech sector is one of the leading sectors in Israel’s technology market, with more than 1,600 companies and $5 billion in investments over the past two years. One factor adversely impacting the growth of the health tech sector is the difficulty integrating qualified physicians and medical personnel into the industry.
