$200K Israeli Security Contest Sponsored By US Dept of Defense

January 28, 2016 | The US Department of Defense is sponsoring a $200,000 Israeli startup competition focused on security and counter terrorism technologies, in conjunction with the MIT Enterprise Forum of Israel and the Israeli Ministry of Defense. The contest follows last year’s very successful $100,000 program. This year’s program consists of two tracks, one for Mobile Apps, one for all other relevant technologies (both cyber and physical), each with a $100,000 price. The tracks have different entry deadlines, judging panels, and evaluation processes, but the winners will be announced at the same conference on June 7.
