Eliminating construction delays
More information about Israel’s Buildots (see previously) which says it can cut construction project delays by 50% and reduce timelines by an average of three months. Buildots works with 50+ construction firms globally. One of its case studies is UK Royal Bournemouth’s hospital project.
Painting by robot
The EG7 robot produced by Israel’s Okibo autonomously finishes dry walls – sanding and spray-painting, guided by Okibo’s patented AI-guided 3D scanning and real-time modeling algorithm. No preparations, measurement tools, or special marking. Okibo has just launched its US HQ.
Let’s hear it for Israeli technology
Israel’s Bettear (see previously) is a leader in assistive listening and audio streaming. Its system is available in concert halls, museums, theaters, cultural centers, university campuses and senior residences in 60 countries. 4,000 venues and institutions use it in Israel alone.
Two golds at girls Euro Math Olympiad
The Israeli team won two gold medals and two honorable mentions at the 2025 European Girls’ Mathematical Olympiad (EGMO) in Pristina, Kosovo. Gold medalists Neta Ilani and Olga Basov were 5th and 11th overall of the 219 participants representing 56 countries.
Prestigious scientists
The three young Israeli scientists awarded 2025 Bavatnik awards (and $100,000 each) are Weizmann’s Yonatan Steizer (epigenetics), BGU’s Benjamin Palmer (organic biomineralization), and Hebrew University’s Chaim Garfinkel (weather forecasting).
An AI tutor for every 16-year-old
Israel is the world’s first country to give every K-12 student access to a private AI tutor. Israel’s eSelf (personalized AI agents) has partnered the Center for Educational Technology (see previously). Harvard University (surprisingly?) is providing academic guidance.
Vegan smoked salmon
Israel’s SimpliiGood by AlgaeCore Technologies (see previously) is starting commercial production of its 100% plant-based smoked salmon analog composed of highly nutritious spirulina microalgae. It is the result of dual intellectually-protected technologies – decolorization and texturizing.
77 years of military innovation
For 77 years, Israel’s defense industry and military prowess have expanded and adapted to the times, leading the world in many technologies, and developing the systems to defend the nation against all enemies.
A smart view of the field
Israel’s Phytech has launched AI Advisor, its AI-powered irrigation advisor trained on real in-field data from Phytech’s IoT (Internet of Things) network of tree, fruit, soil, and climate sensors. Its advanced AI-driven irrigation solution is like having a super-agronomic intelligence and an army of advisors.
Keeping electrons spinning
Hebrew University of Jerusalem scientists have discovered that low magnetic fields can maintain the spin of electrons used by quantum computers. When they encounter certain light, electrons often stop spinning, which would cause these computers to lose valuable data.
