Evidence snapshot for Jerusalem
The evidence shows Jerusalem through its role as home to Hebrew University of Jerusalem's technology-transfer operation, Yissum, which since 1964 has created more than 80 spin-off companies and signed 329 licensing agreements in 2018 alone, generating roughly $2 billion in combined annual sales from products including Mobileye, Exelon and Doxil. One spin-off, OrCam Technologies, developed an AI wearable reading device for blind and low-vision users that showed clinical efficacy in peer-reviewed studies but closed its vision-device division in 2024 after competing with free smartphone alternatives. The practices do not provide data on Jerusalem's broader economy, population or non-technology sectors.
