The 21 coolest tech startups in Israel

Israel continues to produce an impressive number of highly successful tech startups for a country with a population of just 9 million people.

The Middle Eastern country is sometimes referred to as "Startup Nation" thanks to the sheer number of entrepreneurs building businesses there, particularly in the coastal city of Tel Aviv.

Multinational tech companies like Google, Apple, Facebook, and Microsoft all have research centres in Israel but some of the local companies are arguably more interesting, with investors keen to get behind many them.

The startups have been ranked based on interviews with multiple investors on the ground in Israel and what the startups have achieved over the last year.
