While attending the MIBB (Michigan Israel Business Bridge) Business Breakfast in Ann Arbor, Jeffrey Mosher spoke with Daniel A. Blumenthal, Deputy Director, Government of Israel, Economic Mission to the U.S. Midwest region, based out of Chicago. The Israeli Foreign Trade Administration is responsible for managing and directing the international trade policy of the State of Israel and promoting Israel’s international business exchange.

Daniel spoke at the breakfast about Israel as a technology hub. The U.S. is the leading market, so they are here to promote Israeli companies partnering with U.S. companies. The Israel Government is committed to funding Israel companies that are partnering with those in the U.S. and Michigan. The Bird Foundation is a great resource for grand funding, as its mission is to accelerate growth through strategic partnerships.
