OurCrowd Global Investor Summit returns to Jerusalem 2019

For the first week in March, the startup world will converge in Jerusalem, with thousands of people already signing up, and over 15,000 people expected to register from over 120 countries. The roster is expected to include 1,000 startup entrepreneurs, 300 venture capitalists, 400 multinational corporations, along with top investors, government officials, and world media who will come to network, learn, make deals, and discover the future in the most historic city in the world.

The theme of the 2019 OurCrowd Global Investor Summit is “Startups: Making a Global Impact,” reflecting the incredible power of breakthrough technologies to make a real and lasting social impact in the world.

Onstage, in working sessions, and in a multitude of tech demos, attendees will learn about the latest breakthroughs, what’s still possible, what hurdles remain, and where investment opportunity lies.

The summit will also feature another kind of impact: the power of entrepreneurship to promote peace, through the creation of jobs and alignment of interests. The summit will explore the challenges and opportunities represented by the innovation revolution including debates about the ethics of genetic editing, how society should prepare humans for the robotic future, and how today’s technologies can address environmental crises.

OurCrowd Founder & CEO Jon Medved said, “In only six years, OurCrowd is now recognised as Israel’s most active venture investor and is on track to raise $1 billion by the end of the year for over 170 tech startups. The summit will celebrate the world-changing impact of startup innovation in healthcare, public safety, environment, mobility, cybersecurity, food, agriculture and more, and is an opportunity to connect our network of 30,000 investors to entrepreneurs, corporations, and venture capitalists, and together help drive the era of tech innovation.”
