1.1
Foreign investment reached record US$23.7 billion in 2006
Foreign investment in Israel reached an all-time high of US$23.7 billion in the year 2006, the
Central Bureau of Statistics announced.
The figure is notably 80% higher than foreign investment in 2005, the stats source said.
In the other direction, Israelis invested US$28.6 billion abroad, says the bureau, which is another all-time high. During the year 2005, Israelis invested US$17.6 billion overseas.
In the year 2001, for comparison, Israelis invested US$5.1 billion outside the country. (Ishitech

1.2
Life sciences exports increased by 35% in 2006
According to the Israeli Export Institute, Israeli exports in the field of Life Sciences reached
US$4.6 billion in 2006. Medical equipment reached US$1.5 billion, an increase of 15% over 2005.
63% of medical equipment and biotechnology exports are to Northern America, 28% to Europe and 8% to the far east. (IPC Jan ’07)
1.3
2006 M&A reaches new heights: 76 Israeli hi-tech companies were bought for
US$10.6 billion
Largest hi-tech deals in 2006: HP-Mercury for US$4.5 billion, M-Systems-SanDisk for US$1.5 billion
Hi-Tech mergers and acquisitions reached a 6 year high for Israeli hi-tech companies in 2006. The past record for M&A activity is for US$16.88 billion with 64 transactions, in 2000. These hi-tech figures do not include the monumental Berkshire Hathaway acquisition of Iscar for US$ 4 billion.
2006 was also a successful year for IPO's, with 20 Israeli hi-tech companies raising US$693 million on various stock markets. (IPC Jan ’07)

“The Economist”: Israel in top 5 emerging markets
Israel has risen 12 places to become the world 36th largest economy
In its latest emerging markets survey, “The Economist” notes that Israel has been one of the five fastest growing emerging markets in the past 20 years. Israel has risen 12 spaces from the world’s 48th biggest economy in 1980-84 to 36th biggest economy in 2001-05. “The Economist” ranked economies by size on the basis of their five-year average GDP in current dollars, and compared the rankings of 1980-84 with 2001-05.
“The Economist’s” report is a shot in the arm for Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, Minister of Finance
Abraham Hirchson, and Governor of the Bank of Israel Prof. Stanley Fischer, given that, since
1980, the country has undergone two intifadas, the effects of two wars in Iraq and two wars in
Lebanon - the only one of the 28 emerging economies to have such an experience. (Globes

Standard & Poor's upgrades Israel's rating outlook
International rating agency Standard & Poor's (S&P) has upgraded its outlook for Israel's credit rating from "Stable" to "Positive". The upgrade is in the light of the Israeli economy's resilience in the face of external shocks. S&P confirmed its long-term foreign currency and local currency ratings for the State of Israel at A- and A+. The short-term rating for both foreign currency and local currency is A-1.
S&P analyst Veronique Paillat-Chayrigues said that the outlook upgrade reflected the improved capability of the Israeli economy to withstand geopolitical shocks, and that "the horizon for a rating improvement hinges on the pace of fiscal consolidation and on the future security situation." (Globes 13.02.07)
1.6
Fitch ups Israel outlook to Positive
This year has demonstrated that Israel's improved debt dynamics and now more robust, even faced with quite extreme security challenges.
Credit rating agency Fitch issued a report that upgrades Israel's outlook to Positive, from Stable.
The agency also ratified Israel's foreign currency rating of A-minus and local currency rating of A.
"The short-term rating is affirmed at Short-term 'F1' and the Country Ceiling at 'A+'," Fitch wrote.
The agency was impressed with the "increased dynamism" of the Israeli economy and its resilience following the reforms executed in recent years. Both were evident in the economy's rapid rebound from the effects of the second war with Lebanon, which may have lasted just six weeks but which displaced a million people.
Moreover, the economy endured a change in government too, the agency says.
During the first half of 2006, Israel's economy grew by a rapid 6%. It then retreated in the July-
August conflict in the north, only to rally in the last quarter.
Analyst Richard Fox predicts that economic growth will be at least 4.5% this year, which it sees being in line with Israel's potential.
Israel has improved its public debt to GDP ratio, Fox says, but it remains high at 90%, which is a damper on the country's creditworthiness, and also, Israel needs more wiggle room than most countries because of the potential for regional violence eruptions. Just look at what happened in
July and August, the analyst points out.
As for the deficit, Fox sees the government running a deficit of 1% to 2% of GDP, while its ceiling is 3%. "This year has demonstrated that Israel's improved debt dynamics are now more robust, even faced with quite extreme security challenges," he writes. (Globes 18.12.06)

2.1
Turn Eyeglasses Into Movie Screen
An Israeli optics company says it has developed a miniature video projector that turns regular eyeglasses into a personal video screen. The technology, which until now has only been seen in movies such as Mission Impossible, projects a widescreen video image unnoticeable to anyone but the bespectacled individual.
"Imagine you're sitting in a meeting and you want to read an e-mail you just click a button on the phone in your pocket and you start reading away while you're looking attentively at the person who's giving the presentation," Ari Grobman, business development manager at Lumus Ltd., said in an interview.
Lumus has been approached by major manufacturers of cellular phones and portable media players and expects the product to be on the market during 2007.
Motorola Inc. is listed as an investor in the venture capital-funded company.
The product can be used as regular, corrective eyeglasses, but it also creates an image matching that of a 70-inch television screen viewed from 10 feet away, Grobman said.
The difference between this eyewear and ordinary spectacles is only in the small, black box attached to the earpiece that receives the video signal and projects it into the lenses. The light waves then travel through fiber optics within the lenses where they are enlarged and directed at
the eyes.
Aside from watching movies and checking e-mails, Grobman said the technology will eventually provide drivers with virtual navigation through GPS. (Ishitech Jan ’07)

Scigen opens biopharma manufacturing and R&D plant in Israel
SciGen, a Singaporean biotechnology company, opened a new manufacturing plant in Israel only
6 months after its announcement. The new 120-employee plant, which SciGen invested US$30 million dollars in, will manufacture a Hepatitis B vaccine. Saul Mashaal, CEO of SciGen stated,
"Our operations in Israel are unique, in the plant that we opened here and in general in the research labs that will operate in conjunction… There is no substitute to the Israeli human capital." The Israeli manufacturing plant is expected to greatly enhance SciGen’s market penetration in this vaccine segment. (IPC Jan ’07)

Millennium Electric to build solar power station in Italy
Israel's Millennium Electric TOU Ltd.
, a developer of photovoltaic-based power systems with thermal solar elements, has signed an agreement with Italy’s Lavori to build solar power stations, solar-powered gas stations, and to convert street lighting in Rome to solar-powered street lights.
Lavori is about to build a 105-megawatt (MW) solar power station. It contracted with Millennium
Electric to build a 10-MW power station in the first stage, with an option to expand the contract after the first year. Lavori plans to invest €500-750 million in the projects over five years. €50 million will be invested in Millennium Electric’s 10-MW solar power station. Millennium Electric CEO
Ami Elazari estimated the company’s share of this project at 15%, before calculating its share of electricity sales from the power station. (Globes 30.11.06)

Indonesia's Primasel Selects Trivnet's iCommerce Platform to Provide Mobile
Banking, Payment, Top-Up, Marketing and Loyalty Services
Trivnet Inc., the iCommerce company, announced - at the 3GSM World Congress 2007 - that its iCommerce platform has been selected by PT Indoprima Mikroselindo (Primasel), a mobile telecom provider in Indonesia, to enable new interactive commerce services including mobile banking, payment, top-up, marketing and loyalty programs.

"They'll be able to do their banking, pay their bills, store and transfer funds, make purchases and top-up their prepaid or postpaid accounts - anytime, anywhere - using their cell phones."
"Primasel is among a new breed of innovative operators about to launch an all-encompassing iCommerce service," commented Yael Mittelman, CEO of Trivnet. "We're proud of our role as the primary technology provider and look forward to great achievements from Primasel throughout
Indonesia." (IVC Online 12.02.07)

Nextwave, Microsoft and Polycom began 2007 with acquisitions in Israel
US technology company, Nextwave acquired Israeli developer of metro Wi-Fi network solutions,
Go-Networks, which Network World listed as a top 10 start-up to watch in 2005, for US$46.6 million.
After announcing its new R&D center in Israel and the acquisition of two other Israeli companies in 2006, Microsoft acquired Israeli start-up Secured Dimensions, which has developed technology for the protection of applications based on Microsoft's .NET platform.
Polycom, a leading manufacturer of teleconferencing and videoconferencing equipment, acquired
Destiny Conferencing, developer of patented communication and conferencing solutions, for
US$47.6 million. (IPC Jan ’07)
2.6
30 engineers at IBM Israel were central in the development of Sony’s
Playstation 3
The Israeli team planned the CPU that synchronizes and measures the processors' core operations
The Israeli team at IBM's R&D center in Haifa developed the Cell, which is the control panel's core. The tools that the Israeli team developed for the chip authentication shortened the development process and accelerated the product's time to market. The new control panel, which was launched on November 7th, 2006, sold 197,000 units on the first day in North America and within two weeks sold over a million. (IPC Jan ’07)
2.7
Oracle opens new Israel R&D center
Oracle Corp. (Nasdaq:ORCL) inaugurated its new R&D center in Petah Tikva, its first center in
Israel. The center is based on the technology and personnel of start-up Demantra, which Oracle acquired in May 2006 for US$41 million.
The R&D center will supply Oracle with Demantra’s demand forecasting applications. Oracle
Demantra VP development Bart Feldman said that the center would integrate Demantra’s products with Oracle CRM applications acquired from PeopleSoft and ERP applications acquired from Siebel Systems.
Oracle Israel managing director Moshe Horev said that the company would invest US$2-3 million in at least eight other Israeli companies this year. Oracle has already invested in four Israeli companies. The investments are made through Oracle Israel’s center for excellence, where the company collaborates with the Office of the Chief Scientist, matching the latter’s investments in
start-ups. Oracle does not make financial investments, but provides equipment.
Horev said, “The development center will have 10-15 companies this year. Oracle constantly thinks how to exploit local human capital, and the acquisition of Demantra fits in with this concept. Paralleling the investments, we’re constantly examining other acquisitions in Israel.”

The Israeli high-tech sector experienced its best year ever, in 2006. Merger and acquisition activity was marked by small and big deals.

The Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange Index reached an all-time record high. Foreign investors were major participants. They not only enjoyed rising prices but also a strong Israeli shekel, which added to foreign investors' yields.
Following the successful firing of Arrow anti-missile system, Israel sees the Arrow program as a
response to the realistic threat of ballistic missiles in the region.

Wertheimer, which simply said "We have a company for sale".
The American Nasdaq stock market launched an index of the Israeli companies listed on its exchange.
July marked the beginning of the War in Lebanon. Israel could not find an answer to the 1,000 katyushas that landed in its territory. The war did not impact the Israeli high-tech sector as business continued, as usual.
