Israel’s Novella Innovative Technology (see previously) has partnered with Australia’s Metaphor Foods, to use Novella’s botanic AuraCell™ plant cell natural antioxidant and anti-microbial compounds for natural preservation in food applications.

Israeli startup Scanary unveiled a groundbreaking technology for mass security screening, capable of processing up to 25,000 people per hour without physical contact or bottlenecks. The system detects hidden objects on individuals in motion across 200 square meters, identifying threats in under two seconds.

Israel’s SeeTrue (see previously) is rolling out SeeTrue X-ray – the next generation of its real-time detection of prohibited items. It features real-time, high-accuracy detection; low false positives for faster passenger flow; and connectivity with all common scanners.

Israel embraces sustainable construction with innovative materials, energy-efficient design and long-term savings - positioning green building as a key pillar of environmental responsibility and modern real estate strategy. Israel has adopted Standard 5281, which defines clear criteria for sustainable buildings.

Israel’s ZutaCore (see previously) has partnered with global AI-as-a-Service platform, Iozera, to make data centers more sustainable for AI operations. ZutaCore's HyperCool® technology uses a direct-to-chip pool boiling system to efficiently remove heat from processors and away from servers.

Israel’s SCIO (see previously) has launched the Mini 2 - the 2nd generation of the world’s first pocket spectrometer. It analyses the content of corn (ear, shelled or sweet corn). It is vital for US agriculture, to aid harvest, storage, and field management decisions. It also scans cheese.

Israel and the US are to create a joint science center for artificial intelligence and quantum innovation at an investment of $200 million. The center will serve as a hub to promote technology-driven cooperation and diplomacy with Gulf countries in AI and quantum science.  

Israeli scientists previously proved that plants emit sounds and listen to bees (see ). Further studies show that female moths decide whether to lay their eggs on specific plants depending on the sounds that they emit.

Israel’s PoLoPo (see previously) has tripled the protein content of potatoes. But the taste is just as good – as this video test shows.

Israeli preschoolers who start early outperform peers, especially in religious schools. The researchers suggest that these differences might stem from Israel’s larger socio-economic and cultural-linguistic gaps compared to the leading nations.
