Israel seeks 200 global AI experts to address shortage in local tech startups

Israel is facing a significant shortage of AI talent, falling behind the US and Europe in attracting investments for AI startups. To combat this, the country has allocated NIS 7 million to recruit at least 200 foreign AI experts over the next three years. This initiative aims to bolster Israel's tech industry and maintain its competitive edge in the global AI landscape.

The Israel Innovation Authority highlights that the current number of local graduates entering AI roles is insufficient to meet the growing demand. The program will collaborate with various organizations to identify and integrate global experts into Israeli tech companies, particularly startups. This strategic move is essential for enhancing the capabilities and global standing of Israel's AI sector.

• Israel allocates NIS 7 million to attract global AI talent.

• Local AI graduate numbers are insufficient to meet industry demand.
