This measure, part of the broader "National Infrastructure Bill" enacted a year ago to close Israel's major infrastructure gap, is HUGE. It aims to overcome the "Utility Coordination" challenge, notoriously the weakest link in every project life cycle — key to delivering Israel's mega-projects on time over the next decade and essential for sustaining rapid economic growth. Why is this so crucial? - Israel's productivity gap (GDP per hour worked) is the biggest challenge to realizing its economic growth potential. - Alongside the demographic challenge, aggressively addressing the "Infrastructure Gap" is a top priority. - Approximately 25% of the productivity gap is attributed to infrastructure deficiencies in transportation, particularly mass transit. - Over the next 10-15 years, Israel will invest more than NIS 0.5 trillion in capital projects for Transportation and Energy (1.5-2% increase in investment of GDP annually). Streamlining projects = closing the "infrastructure gap" faster = GROWTH. Adi Hachmon Iliya Katz Yuval Avigdor Dana Dover Itzik Daniel Esti Feldman

🎉 Celebrating 5 Years at Ogen! 🎉 These days, I am proud to mark five incredible years with Ogen. During this time, I've had the privilege of being part of our organization’s rapid growth and its pivotal role in addressing two major crises in Israel - the Covid-19 pandemic and the ongoing war. Here are some key achievements we've accomplished together: Major Technology Breakthroughs: From manual paperwork in 2019, we have undergone an impressive digital transformation. Launched online loan requests, integrated open banking, connected with Israel's credit bureau, implemented digital underwriting, and established a full omni-channel experience. Enhanced our cyber-security platform, developed an AML system, integrated a KYC system, and completed many more technology projects. Unique Financial Innovation: Transitioned from a donation-based non-profit to an innovative financial organization. Secured credit from banks, raised funds from provident and pension funds, attracted deposits from impact investors, and are now exploring the issuance of commercial papers. Substantial M&A Activities: Merged Keren Shemesh into our group. Established Spark IL and Ment-Or in collaboration with the Jewish Agency. Despite numerous challenges, all three projects are now successful and have made a significant impact in Israel. Reflecting on these past five years at Ogen, I feel immense satisfaction and pride in our collective achievements. Here's to continued growth and impact in the years ahead! 🚀 #Anniversary #Milestone #Proud #Ogen #Innovation #Technology #Finance #Impact

CFO: “What if we invest in training our employees and they leave?” CEO: “What if we don’t… and they stay?” Ah, the classic debate. As we gear up for 2025, the stakes are even higher, especially for Israeli startups looking to crush ambitious sales goals.
