Israel - the name resonates with a country that is today synonymous with Innovation, Technology, a Start-up culture that could be the awe of any country!
Definitely, Israel is unique... is there something that one could learn from this small country that is located in the midst of a hostile neighbors. For a community of people who were displaced from their origins over 2000 years ago, to come back and create an innovation powerhouse, it is nothing less than a miracle!
The authors - Dan Senor and Saul Singer have just written a fitting biography of this nation that has rebuilt in the last 6 decades a story of a culture that had to start from scratch and script its prowess as a leading start-up ecosystem.
As one who has an interest in entrepreneurship, this book has an interesting combination of history, societal aspects, the economic conditions etc very well written. Right from the genesis of the country to how they seeded each of the industries - the need for innovation, the role played by military, a comparison with startup clusters, and last but not the least the challenges ahead... all so well put across that the reader is just glued to the story.
I just love this book and would urge every guy interested in entrepreneurship read this book.
