Airis Labs

TL;DR - Airis Labs recognized for sole-source supplier status by the US Army! A few weeks ago, Amos Lahav and I had the privilege of participating in the 2024 #xTechInternational prize competition finals in Madrid. We were selected as one of the top 4 international startups in the #AI for #Intelligence and #DecisionMaking Applications track, following a rigorous down-selection process by multiple Army experts. This event marked the culmination of months of preparation, including several written and oral deliverables (I learned a lot about pentacharts...) and an 8-week intensive accelerator program. During this program we had the chance to engage with prominent leaders from the US Army-USSOCOM-United States Department of Defense ecosystem, Defense Innovation Unit (DIU), Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering, IQT (In-Q-Tel), NATO DIANA and more. As described by xTech: "xTech connects the Army with businesses through prize competitions, breaking down traditional barriers to working with the Army. Bringing these groups together not only spurs innovation and accelerates technology development for the Army, but provides businesses a unique collaboration opportunity. In addition to cash prizes, businesses are given opportunities to receive follow-on contracts and direct exposure to Army experts and commercial stakeholders – supplying businesses with key networking, education and mentorship opportunities." In addition to the cash prizes received for qualifying through each selection round, startups reaching the final round showcase innovative technology with great potential #impact for the Army. This achievement qualifies us for sole-source status, a process that would otherwise take up to 3 years! As part of the xTech alumni community, we're excited to continue our engagement with the Army in building cutting edge AI that drives heroic action ??

?? Stanford University has recently released the "AI Index Report for 2024", which contains some interesting data related to Israel's position in the field of AI. ?? First, #Israel leads globally in the concentration of human capital with #AI skills, but there is a negative trend of human capital emigration from Israel in this field. ???? Second, the report shows that men acquire more AI skills than women, but the status of women in Israel is relatively good compared to other countries in the world. ?? In terms of AI entrepreneurship, the report reveals that in 2023, 43 new AI companies in Israel received #funding, compared to nearly 900 in the United States. The United States maintains a lead over other countries in the AI race, with Israel ranking fourth in the number of new AI companies funded between 2013 and 2023 (442 companies). ?? Furthermore, the report asks whether investments in #artificial #intelligence in Israel are sufficient to keep the country competitive globally. In 2023, Israel ranked eighth in the world in terms of private investment in AI, totaling $1.5 billion. However, over the past decade, Israel ranks fourth globally with investments close to $13 billion in AI companies. ?? When it comes to developing #machine #learning models, the United States leads the way, but Israel holds a respectable position relative to its size. However, when examining models used for #GenerativeAI capabilities, Israel's position is slightly less favorable. ?? Finally, the report concludes that artificial intelligence has the potential to significantly improve productivity in Israel in the near future.

Highly recommended interview with TLV Partners' Yonatan Mandelbaum speaking about the concept of "patriotism-as-a-service", building on the work of Katherine Boyle’s #AmericanDynamism and tailoring it to the local startup ecosystem in the #startupnation https://lnkd.in/djDeExfe
