Technion’s Entrepreneurial Impact In laboratories across the Technion campus, scientists are turning once unfathomable ideas into research they hope will become the next lifesaving cancer treatment, indispensable assistive device, or environmental discovery. The road to commercialization isn’t easy. But you wouldn’t know that from the success stories coming out of the Technion and the Jacobs […]
Even before the establishment of the State of Israel, faculty, students, and alumni of the Technion helped develop and manage water resources in a desert land. They contributed to the national water carrier that brought water from the Kinneret (Sea of Galilee) in the north to the drylands in the south. They improved technologies for water treatment, desalination, and drip irrigation. These efforts have turned Israel from a water-deficient to a water-abundant country. Today, Israel leads the world in water reclamation, recycling more than 90% of its wastewater for use in agriculture and industry. No longer reliant on the Kinneret,…
