Growing Israeli start-ups ecosystem
David Post, managing director for corporate development and strategy at Chainlink Labs, is excited by the opportunities unlocked for developers in the Israeli blockchain community:
We see a lot of exciting opportunities for the Israeli tech community to contribute to Web3. To help drive innovation, we’re collaborating with First Labs on the first-ever Web3 hackathon in Tel Aviv, with attendees able to gain exclusive access to top-tier mentors and thought leaders. We’re looking forward to seeing what the Israeli startup ecosystem develops with the support of Chainlink, the industry-leading oracle solution.
Ayal Itzkoviz, managing partner at Pitango, is certain that the joint initiative with Chainlink (LINK) will introduce new phase of Web2-to-Web3 transition for various use cases:
We believe that in the coming years Web3 will break the boundaries of the crypto community and become a dominant modality for data sharing and novel applications used by native Web3 users and legacy “web2” users and organizations. We’re honored to partner with Chainlink Labs, the global leader in connecting real-world data into the blockchain networks, and together to assist the thriving Web3 Israeli ecosystem realize its full potential.
