The energy forum at S. Neaman Institute at the Technion led by Prof. Gershon Grossman examined the profitability of oil shale utilization in Israel
Lack of orderly approval process for various proposed projects for oil shale mining and utilization as a source for producing liquid fuels, and lack of coordination between relevant ministries – a significant problem of regulation – constitute an extreme burden on entrepreneurs interested in operating in this field in Israel. This is the main conclusion reached by a consensus of special experts at the “Energy Forum” discussion in mid-October.

From “Ladaat.net”:
Many are familiar with Hezki Farkash from Haifa, the Operations Officer of ZAKA’s Northern Command. ( ZAKA = Zihuy Korbanot Ason).
It turns out, that throughout the last year his span of activity in the area of helping the Ultra-Orthodox public, did not fall from his ZAKA activity.
Farkash led the coordination of Ultra-Orthodox youth volunteering into the National Civic Service, particularly in the “Respect the Elderly” project, of the Ministry for Senior Citizens. This is in addition to his high involvement in the Ultra-Orthodox Project at the Samuel Neaman Institute at the Technion in Haifa. His vast activities for the public, are probably part of the man’s DNA.

To exit or not to exit
That’s the billion-dollar question. Israel prides itself on being the start-up nation, but many contend that it would be better off creating its own homegrown multinationals.
