Spotlight on Innovation / January Focus: CES Innovation
Every month we’ll share just a couple of the many unique and exciting Israeli innovations we’ve
connected with recently. This month, we are highlighting Israeli technology that we met at the
Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas in early January. You’ll see these companies are a little
outside of our usual focus sectors! If you’re interested in connecting with these companies,

fresh, chemical-free vegetables, herbs, fruits, and bulbs from home! The Agwa 1.0 effortlessly
and consistently provides an entire family with produce 365 days a year at a cost that is 50% of
retail. It’s easy to use and the ecological footprint is extremely low – using just 1 gallon of water
