ISRAELI PARLIAMENT APPROVES 2009 - 2010 BUDGET
The Knesset in July passed a first time ever two year (2009-2010) budget. The budget will
total 316.5 billion shekels ($82 billion) in 2009, with a budget deficit of 6% of the gross
domestic product (GDP), and 321.5 billion shekels in 2010, with a deficit of 5.5% of GDP.
A mandated 1.7% increase in annual government spending was raised by an additional
1.35% in both 2009 and 2010. The increase will revert to 1.7% in 2011.
The two-year budget is expected to help bring the economy out of recession and at the
same time, meet the country's social needs.
To meet those ends, the Israeli government has embarked on a seven-year plan to
gradually reduce income and corporate tax so as to attract more businesses to the country.
Meanwhile industrial leaders throughout the world continue to frequent Israel's shores. In
July, visitors to Israel included HP Chairman, CEO and President Mark Hurd, Dell
Chairman and CEO Michael Dell, Oracle President and CFO Safra Catz, Microsoft Chief
Software Architect Ray Ozzie, and AOL CEO Tim Armstrong.

ISRAEL CHIEF SCIENTIST’S OFFICE LAUNCHES BIOTECH FUND
Israel's Office of the Chief Scientist (OCS) at the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Labor
announced its intention to establish a new Biotech Fund later this year to help boost growth
in Israel's biotech sector. The fund aims to raise up to 1 billion shekels ($250 million), of
which 250 million shekels will be provided by the Israeli government.
According to the OCS the fund is greatly needed given the enormous undeveloped
potential of Israel's biotech sector. Many creative ideas are never realized for lack of
adequate financing. Israel is one of the countries with the most patents in biopharmaceuticals approved by the U.S. patent office, and Israeli universities are especially
prominent as a source for patents approved in the U.S. About 8.5% of patents registered in
Israel are in the field of biotechnology and a large percentage of PhD graduates work in
fields relevant to the sector.

DEUTSCHE BANK FORECASTS HIGHER GDP GROWTH FOR ISRAEL IN 2010
Analysts at Deutsche Bank revised their global economic growth forecast upward for the
first time since the beginning of the global financial crisis, and predict that Israel's gross
domestic product will grow 2% in 2010, after falling 1.1% in 2009. The Bank of Israel's
2010 forecast projects 1% economic growth
Deutsche Bank in the same report also said it expects Israel's inflation, as measured by the
Consumer Price Index (CPI), to rise 2.1% in 2009, but at a slower rate of 1.9% in 2010.
Deutsche Bank analysts see global economic growth of 2.5% in 2010, compared with their
previous estimate of 2% for that year. They noted that the higher global growth forecast is
entirely based on stronger expected growth in industrial countries with two factors pushing
in this direction - a better outlook for investment growth, and better export growth.
Israeli industrial exports, excluding diamonds, rose 23% in June from May, while high-tech
exports rose 25%.

JERUSALEM RATED TOP TOURIST ATTRACTION
According to the Travel + Leisure magazine Jerusalem is one of the world's most preferred
destinations. In an annual poll of its online readers, the Israeli capital was ranked the 17th
best tourist destination in the world, surpassing London, Paris, and Barcelona, three
popular hubs which did not make it into the top 20.
Among cities in the Middle East and Africa, Jerusalem ranked third behind Cape Town,
South Africa, and Fez, Morocco.
The Dead Sea, the lowest dry point on Earth at 420 meters below sea level, also gained
special attention recently when it was chosen as one of 28 finalists in the natural world
wonders contest; the original list included 261 sites.
The Internet-based competition, which expects more than a billion people to participate in
the online voting for the seven natural wonders of the world, will announce the finalists in
2011.

PHARMA GIANT ROCHE TO STRENGTHEN R&D PIPELINE IN ISRAEL THROUGH
PONTIFAX DEAL
The collaboration will see both partners provide financial support and relevant expertise to
young biotech and pharma companies in Israel.
Swiss pharmaceutical giant F. Hoffmann–La Roche signed a deal with Israeli venture
capital firm Pontifax Management Company for its first significant undertaking in the
country to build up its R&D pipeline by way of investment in the Israeli life science
industry.
Pontifax will help Roche, one of the world's leading healthcare companies, identify and
invest in Israeli biotech companies, with an initial focus on seed-stage and later-stage
biotech firms in areas such as drug development, clinical trials, manufacturing, and
marketing. Selected start-ups will be admitted to an incubator affiliated with Pontifax. The
joint investment will complement funding through the incubator program of the Office of the
Chief Scientist of the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Labor .
In 2007, a delegation of Hoffman-La Roche executives visited 40 Israeli biotech companies
and examined 47 academic research projects
Roche, which was established in 1896, covers every stage of the healthcare process, from
identifying disease susceptibilities and testing for disease in at-risk populations to
prevention, diagnosis, therapy and treatment monitoring .
Herzliya-based Pontifax specializes in investments in seed, early and mid stage
companies, including startups .
Despite the pressures of the global financial crisis, Roche joins several other international
companies that have chosen to invest in the Israeli life science industry .
In February, Medtronic Inc, the world's largest stand-alone maker of medical devices,
agreed to buy the Netanya-based Israeli start-up Ventor Technologies, for $325 million in
cash. Prior to that, Johnson & Johnson bought Omrix for $438 million and St. Jude
acquired Haifa’s Mediguide for $300 million.

MORGAN STANLEY CAPITAL
DEVELOPED MARKET STATUS
INTERNATIONAL
UPGRADES
ISRAEL
TO
Index compiler Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) has reclassified Israel as a
"developed market" from its current “emerging market” status.
Israel's upgrade will take effect in May, 2010, when the MSCI Israel Index will be included
in two of the most widely-tracked global equity benchmark indices, the MSCI World Index
and the MSCI EAFE (Europe, Australasia, and Far East) Index, which only include
developed markets.
The reclassification of Israel, which had been anticipated by analysts, is expected to draw
more investors into the country's equity markets, as many investors are only allowed to
invest in developed markets.

MICROSOFT RELEASES NEW ANTI-VIRUS PROGRAM MADE IN ISRAEL
Software giant Microsoft in late June released the beta version of its free Security
Essentials anti-virus program, which was designed completely by its Israeli R&D Group.
The program is meant to gradually replace Microsoft’s current anti-virus offering, Windows
Live OneCare.
The new product will protect against viruses, spy ware, root kits and Trojans. Other
software companies such as AVG and Avira also offer free anti-virus programs.
Also in June, Microsoft bought Israel's 3DV Systems, a maker of three-dimensional video
imaging, for $34 million. 3DV, which was partly owned by Elron Electronic Industries,
develops virtual reality imaging technology for digital cameras that it sells, called ZCams.
Its main target is the gaming market. Microsoft plans to use 3DV Systems' technology in its
own gaming technology, such as in the Xbox 360.
Microsoft’s Israel R&D center, which grew from 130 to 600 employees since its
establishment 3 years ago and which Microsoft calls its third strategic development center
in the world, outside of the US, plans to keep its Israeli worker complement at the present
level, in spite of the financial downturn, said Microsoft Corporate Vice President and head
of Israel R&D Moshe Lichtman.

IDF-MADE ROBOT SNAKE GATHERS INFORMATION IN ROUGH TERRAIN
The Israeli Defense Forces, which is the source of much local innovation, together with
experts from the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology have created a robot snake that is
capable of recording video and sound in the field.
The tactical reconnaissance robot is two meters long and mimics the movements and
appearance of real snakes, slithering around through caves, tunnels, cracks and buildings,
while at the same time sending images and sound back wirelessly to a laptop computer,
through which it is controlled.
As it is able to bend its joints sufficiently to squeeze through very tight spaces, the new
device could be especially useful in finding people buried under collapsed buildings.
Though serpent-like robots have been under development since the 1970s, the robot
snake created by the IDF is one of the most advanced of its kind and is the first one likely
to be used in field applications.

TEL AVIV STOCK EXCHANGE CONTINUES TO RISE IN 2009
Shares on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (TASE) were boosted, as a rally fueled by strong
corporate earnings world-wide in late July drove leading indices back to levels last seen
before the collapse of Lehman Brothers in September, 2008.
In the course of the July rally, the Tel Aviv–traded blue chips rose 3.3% and the Tel Aviv
100 Index rose 3.2%. The blue-chip Tel Aviv 25 Index has so far risen 44% since January
and is only 23% below its October 2007 all time high, while the TA-100, which is up 56%
since January, remains 26% below its October 2007 high-water mark.
Though the real estate index has fallen 31% in the last 12 months, it has so far increased
109% in 2009. Bank shares are down 14% from last year, but have climbed 57% in 2009
and the TelTech-15 is only off 5% over the past 12 months, while having gained 64% by
late July.

Tower wins large deal in Korea
Tower Semiconductor will produce voltage regulator integrated circuits for TAEJIN
Technology
Adi Ben-Israel 31 Aug 09 14:38
Tower Semiconductor Ltd. (Nasdaq: TSEM; TASE: TSEM) CEO Russell Ellwanger is in
Korea on business, and it appears that he is succeeding. Tower reported another new
contract with a customer in that country, its third new customer there since the appointment
of Michael Song as Tower Korean Country Manager in the beginning of the year.
The new customer, TAEJIN Technology, Co., Ltd., a supplier of linear and switching
regulators for various consumer and mobile applications, chose Tower to manufacture its
low power, high efficiency voltage regulator integrated circuits
The financial value of the deal was not reported, but market estimates are that it is a large
contract, which should yield revenue of several million dollars per year to Tower, beginning
in 2011.
Tower said that according to iSuppli, the multi-billion dollar voltage regulators market is
expected to grow from $5 billion in 2009 to approximately $7 billion in 2013.
TAEJIN markets power management products including linear and switching regulators,
power supply controllers, and DC-DC converters. These devices are used in various
consumer, computing, communication, and automotive products including xDSL, PCs, set-
top boxes, LCD displays, GPS systems and other applications. TAEJIN's voltage regulator
integrated circuits are integrated into products offered by many customers in Korea, Japan,
and China, including LG, Sanyo, Panasonic, and JVC.
TAEJIN Technology president and CEO Choi Tae Hyouk said, "We selected Tower as our
specialty foundry partner as they are known to have the best record for first time success.
We have worked with other foundries, but they could not meet our requirements for
performance, price, customer service, and modeling accuracy."
Tower shares fell 3.5% on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (TASE) by mid-afternoon. The
company's shares closed on Nasdaq yesterday at $1.20, about double their closing price
July 28. Tower's market cap on Nasdaq is $192 million.

Giza makes first Taiwan investment
The venture capital firm participated in a funding project by a Taiwanese solar
energy company.
Shmulik Shelah 31 Aug 09 20:59
The contact between Giza Venture Capital and Taiwan until recently was in one direction there were Taiwanese investors who invested in its fund, or along with the fund in other
Israeli companies. Now, the contacts go both ways.
Giza participated in recent days in a $19.1 million funding project by Taiwanese solar
energy company Danen Technology. Giza invested along with investors from Taiwan and
elsewhere.
Giza has a long history with Taiwan. Since 2001 it has maintained an office there, and
Taiwan's National Development Fund invested in the Giza IV fund, which began in 2005.
Danen develops solutions for photo-voltaic solar cells. Danen said it will use the additional
capital to expand its capacity from 60MWp currently to 120MWp by the end of 2009.
Giza said today that it was a relatively significant investment of several million dollars. Giza
managing partner Ori Kirshner said, "It was an opportunity to combine Israeli technologies
with this company." Giza executives added that the option did not refer only to companies
in which Giza has already invested, but also in those companies in which it may invest in
the future.

Mekorot, BDB invest in reverse osmosis co Rotec
The start-up will run pilots at Mekorot desalination plants.
Merav Ankori 5 Aug 09 17:59
Mekorot National Water Company and Israeli cleantech fund BDB Technologies & Hi-Tech
Investments Ltd. will invest $200,000 in equal shares in Ashkelon Technological Industries
(ATI) portfolio company Rotec Ltd. (Reverse Osmosis Technologies). The investment will
enable Rotec to run pilots at Mekorot brackish water desalination plants.
A successful pilot would serve as kind of standard for project with water companies around
the world. Rotec is a joint venture with Ben Gurion University of the Negev, the University
of Colorado, and the Hashemite University of Jordan.
BDB invests in early-stage cleantech and life sciences start-ups. It was established by
chairman Gil Deutsch, a co-founder and CEO of Excellence Investments Ltd. (TASE:
EXCE), and CEO Avi Broder.
Rotec is developing a system to improve reverse osmosis technology for desalination of
brackish well water. In reverse osmosis, saline water is forced through membrane to
remove the salts and other particles, which accumulate on the membranes, clogging them.
Rotec is developing an ultrasonic sensor to detect this precipitation (known as scaling and
bio-fouling) to boost the water recovery rate and reduce the need for pretreatment plants.
