I know there’s lots of cool stuff doing on at DLD Tel Aviv Innovation Festival 2015.

Tons of companies, startups, people, delegartions from all over the world… and I mean all over the planet.

Of all the things I saw on day one, here’s one that blew me away: a mission to bring 1,000,000 (not a misprint) new “immigrants” to Israel.

I continue to look for fundamential, long-term shifts that I see going on here.

This is one of them.

This may be a 20 year cycle to do this, but think of the intellectual and capital wealth that would be transferred and brought here in doing so.

I also see (and I am part of this sub-culture) more and people chosing to work and live part of, if not a majority of their time here in Israel, while still keeping their ties to wherever “back home” might be.

If you are at DLD, be sure and meet the team from Aliyah Israel Fund. They have a booth in the startup area.

A very compelling and bold idea that is starting to unfold…. with technology and telecom you can create your own reality…
