Why We're Building APEX
It's our national duty to secure Israel's edge - by turning talent into sovereignty.
From Cyber to enduring AI Leadership
Israel leads in cyber-fast wins, clear playbook. To stay ahead, we have to build.
Drafting the AI playbook - deeper tech, higher stakes, longer-term wins.
Filling the Gap
There is no program connecting Israeli frontier AI with pragmatic, real-world execution. So we built one. This is not just a gap-it's a national vulnerability and a generational opportunity.
