Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu predicts Israel could be among the top ten global economies.
“We have a knowledge-intensive economy — we now get 20% of startups in AI, and a slightly larger number in cybernetics,” he tells a meeting of Finance Ministry officials.
“The US is in first place in the world, we are in second place, and we are a thousandth of the world’s population,” he says. “We can easily be among the top 10 economies in the world.”
