The form is available at:
https://www.chamber.org.il/foreigntrade/1094/1098/160321/
The organizers emphasize that registration is selective. Submitting the form does not imply automatic confirmation of participation, indicating a targeted and professional format of events focused on practical investment results.
Where the Announcement is Posted and Why It Matters
Information about the event is published on the official website of the Tel Aviv and Central Israel Chamber of Commerce — one of the key business institutions in the country.
This is not a news platform or a private initiative. The Chamber of Commerce represents the interests of businesses and employers, acting as a link between the private sector, government structures, and international partners. Publications on this platform undergo institutional selection and are focused on real economic processes — investments, partnerships, and entering foreign markets.
In this case, the announcement reflects the recognition of the Ukraine — Israel — Europe direction as economically and strategically significant. The topics of defense technologies, dual-use solutions, and AI are noted not as niche but as part of the official business agenda.
For Israeli entrepreneurs with Ukrainian roots, this is a rare example of how origin becomes not a formal biographical fact but a factor of access to investments, international connections, and institutional support.
