I've recently been reading a bit about the history of Israel and the prolific tech industry there. Funny enough the founders are Israeli (company was in NYC), and one of them had a leadership role in the Talpiot program--something akin to the Navy seals for science and technology in the IDF.

Really remarkable country, seemingly overflowing with human capital. A population smaller than New Jersey but so much innovation and startups.
