“My internship was a unique opportunity to experience Israel’s special startup culture up close. It showed me exactly how startups go from an idea to a reality, and how difficult, long, and winding that path can be. The networking and learning opportunities also enabled me to meet entrepreneurs, industry experts, and investors I never would have met otherwise."
