Israel launched its national innovation showcase in India at the Bengaluru Tech Summit 2025, as a demonstration of the strong technological collaboration between the countries, the Israel Innovation Authority announced on Tuesday.
The Israeli Pavilion featured in the Nov. 18-20 summit some 20 Deep-Tech companies, including 12 firms with a strong emphasis on smart mobility, the Israel Innovation Authority noted.
Deep-Tech refers to companies built on significant scientific discoveries or meaningful engineering innovations with the potential to transform whole industries.
The companies taking part in the showcase are developing technologies in autonomous mobility, fleet and logistics optimization, EV and energy management, transportation cybersecurity, and data and AI infrastructure for urban environments, the government body said.
Dror Bin, CEO of the Israel Innovation Authority, delivered a keynote address at the summit in the city formerly known as Bangalore.
In an earlier statement, he said the Israeli-Indian collaboration reflects a shared interest in developing it further.
“Israel and India bring very different but highly complementary strengths. Israeli technology companies are used to working at the edge of innovation and moving quickly from concept to tested solution. India offers scale, a broad industrial base, and one of the world’s most dynamic markets,” Bin said.
“Combining these advantages creates real potential for joint projects that deliver value in both countries. Our goal is to see Israeli and Indian companies develop technologies together and test them in real-world conditions in the Indian market,” he added.
The countries have established technological ties through the Israel-India Industrial R&D and Technological Bilateral Fund (I4F). The Israel Innovation Authority said it regards I4F as “a practical foundation upon which broader cooperation can be built.”
The authority has launched an online catalogue of its delegation of smart mobility companies, enabling Indian corporates, investors and ecosystem partners to review solutions, identify potential matches and initiate discussions during and after the summit.
Consul General to South India Orli Weitzman said it was Israel’s “largest-ever national booth. … The record participation reflects the country’s drive to deepen India-Israel ties through collaboration and technology.”
The Israel Innovation Authority said that it views this year’s strong participation as a clear indicator of “untapped potential in the India-Israel innovation corridor.”
