Israeli non-profit companies Start-Up Nation Central (SNC) and HealthIL have partnered to launch a web portal, CoronaTech Israel, that explores coronavirus-related innovation in Israel and abroad.
The goal of CoronaTech Israel is to provide accurate information about local and worldwide coronavirus-related opportunities and challenges.
The portal uses SNC’s Start-Up Nation Finder, which has data on over 6,500 Israeli tech companies.
In addition, the web portal allows healthcare providers, organisations, and corporations to post open calls for innovation for the benefit of the ecosystem, and to look through their up-to-date dashboard to find potential technologies and solutions that can help in the global fight against COVID-19.
The website also includes a list of free online events such as hackathons and webinars.
CoronaTech Israel serves as a discovery platform for local and global initiatives and funding opportunities related to this crisis. The website states that for healthcare providers, governments, and other organisations, CoronaTech Israel acts as a central gateway to discover leading Israeli innovation and best practices.
The web portal is updated daily to provide new information about Israeli innovation in its fight against coronavirus.
