In general, since the economic center of Israel is Tel Aviv, most of the potential employees are located around it. Nonetheless, every major city in Israel, and especially if it houses a university, has a large amount of highly educated and qualified residents. For instance, the Technion, located in Haifa, is one of the leading institutes in terms of its academic-industry relationship. The Technion maintains a unique relationship with many related industries and manufacturers in the surrounding area, especially in engineering- related fields.

The Technion liaison office provides the following services:

• Translating an industry’s needs into scientific and technological requirements.
• Coordinating campus resources with industrial technological needs.
• Linking relevant researchers with industrial partners.
• Coordinating visits, networking sessions, and seminars with industries.
• Meetings with relevant researchers.
• Mediating between industry and researchers’ needs and viewpoints.
• Assisting in finding the appropriate financial tools for each project.
• • Providing assistance during all phases of the project.
