On May 19, New York City and Israeli officials, including Mayor Eric Adams and Economy Minister Nir Barkat, signed a non-binding agreement establishing the New York City-Israel Economic Council. This council aims to bolster economic ties and foster innovation in areas such as environmental technology, life sciences, and artificial intelligence. The initiative is seen as a way for Israeli startups to gain access to the U.S. market while strengthening New York's position as a global hub for business collaborations. The agreement reflects the complex relationships within the Jewish community, particularly amidst diverse perspectives on Zionism.
A global hub of innovation, creativity and economic leadership, New York represents a powerful partner for Israel's thriving business ecosystem.
The new council will deepen economic ties between our governments and serve as a gateway to the U.S. market for Israeli businesses.
