In a recent video on IsraeliPM, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has renewed his call for global investors to seize opportunities in Israel’s rapidly expanding economy, emphasizing that the nation’s innovation-driven industries—particularly defense technology—are poised for major growth.
Speaking on the dynamics of a globalized economy, Netanyahu stressed that market forces are shaping unprecedented opportunities for those willing to invest. “There’s a global economy and people have an opportunity to get on board,” he said. “That’s my message to all the investors. Get on board now because we’re about to take off into the technologies of the future.”
The prime minister revealed that one of the key drivers of this anticipated growth is Israel’s weapons industry, which has become a cornerstone of both national defense and economic expansion. “The one area that I spoke about yesterday was the weapons industry,” Netanyahu noted, highlighting how military innovation continues to yield both strategic advantages and commercial success.
Israel has long been recognized as a world leader in defense technology, developing systems such as the Iron Dome missile defense, advanced drones, and cutting-edge cybersecurity platforms. These innovations, often born out of security necessity, have increasingly found demand in international markets, with Israeli defense exports reaching record levels in recent years.
Netanyahu framed the industry as not only critical for Israel’s survival but also as an economic engine. “Our defense sector is a showcase of Israeli ingenuity,” he said, stressing that the same technologies designed to protect the nation are also fueling its export growth and strengthening its global partnerships.
Economic analysts note that Israel’s defense exports have exceeded $12 billion annually, with growing interest from Europe, Asia, and North America. Netanyahu suggested that these figures demonstrate why foreign investors should pay close attention to Israel’s trajectory.
