TEL AVIV TECH ECOSYSTEM REPORT

4 /

The year 2025 will be remembered as a landmark year in the history of Tel Aviv-Yafo’s tech industry. This is not just due to the impressive figures, but also for the values they represent. Tel Aviv-Yafo continues to prove that it is more than just a business hub – it is home to a daring, innovative, and driven community that does not afraid to dream big. The city remains a magnet for unprecedented levels of international investment, surpassing $14 billion, a 70% increase from the year before.

2025 also saw record-breaking exits: from the historic WIZ exit to the major deals of Aramis and Melio, culminating in a total of $46 billion – an amount never seen before in any single year in the history of Israeli high-tech. Adding to this momentum, 23 new international organizations have opened R&D centers in the city. Together with the 167 global giants that have already made Tel Aviv their home, this has created an ecosystem that is unparalleled anywhere in the world – a true vote of confidence in the city, its human capital, and the unique ecosystem built over the years. Yet beyond economic achievements, the local tech industry has repeatedly demonstrated its powerful social and civic force. Here, innovation and entrepreneurship are deeply intertwined with responsibility, collaboration, and community engagement. This is the defining characteristic of our outstanding talent. I invite you to explore this report, feel a sense of accomplishment and pride at the insights it reveals. It is evident that the combination of technological strength and evolving dynamics in the Middle East is solidifying Tel Aviv-Yafo’s position as a strategic regional anchor. We are committed to continuing to nurture this unique ecosystem to ensure global leadership and groundbreaking achievements for years to come.

Well done! Sharon Landes-Fisher CEO, Tel Aviv Global
