The Technology Incubator Committee, chaired by the chief scientist, Dr. Eli Ofer, approved at its last meeting six new projects with an investment of NIS 13 million, while state grants totaled NIS 11 million. Below are the approved projects:
Medical equipment:
• A surgical method for the treatment of spinal canal stenosis. Incentive incubator, Ariel.
• A portable method and system for measuring continuous blood pressure. Hamma Mai'an, Beer Sheva.
software:
• Increasing the capacity of antenna arrays for WiMAX networks. Incentive incubator, Ariel.
• Digital scent generator for computer games. Incubator of horizons.
electronics:
• Tiny integral module for GPS domain. Hamma Van Leer, Jerusalem.
Materials:
• Materials for sealing in a reversible process of agricultural grid houses. The Valley Initiatives Incubator, Migdal Ha'Emek.
Dr. Eli Ofer, the chief scientist, noted that in addition to this, DermIpsor, which develops a cure for ringworm and operates in the MTG incubator in Katzerin, received the committee's approval to operate in the incubator for an additional year - a third, as part of a special track that gives projects in the field of biotechnology the opportunity to receive the support of the state for three years, instead of two years.
Dr. Ofer also noted that the JVP group received the approval of the committee to operate the Studio JVP incubator for three more years. The incubator, which was privatized by the JVP Group three years ago, operates in Jerusalem and focuses on the field of software in general and organizational software and software for new media technologies in particular.
Renee Fridor, director of the incubator program, stated that although the technology incubators are prepared to receive a wide variety of projects from different fields, some incubators choose to focus on specific fields in which they are interested or in which they have gained experience. This phenomenon originates from the privatization of the incubators about 4 years ago. Here are a few examples of this: MITV incubators from Kiryat Shmona Vared-Biomed operating in the Tel Aviv area focus on life sciences, L.N. Mefretz Haifa intends to become a "green" incubator, Mezemach Kinnerot Incubator will focus on water technologies, Lab-One Incubator focuses on software and communication fields and Meshgav Incubator from Gush Segev chose to focus on medical equipment and internal security.
