I came across the following blog post comparing Tel Aviv to New York City in terms of their relative recent performances in founding and growing technology companies.
Taking a step back, what is giving me goosebumps is the sheer scale of Israel’s achievement: the sheer depth, history and phenomenal concentration of capital on Wall St is almost beyond compare.
That a country whose modern form was reborn only 67 years ago and whose complete population is barely a third of greater NYC can be too close to call with New York is amazing.
And ahead of London.
Here’s some of what Amit Karp wrote and his slide deck:
Recently Compass released the 2015 Global Startup Ecosystem Report which ranked NY 2nd and Tel-Aviv 5th. I therefore decided to take a more data driven approach to compare the two. The results are in the deck below:
