Silicon Wadi - Location

Location

Due to the small size of Israel, the concentration of hi-tech firms across much of the country is enough for it to be recognised as one large cluster. Most activity is located in the densely populated areas of metropolitan Tel Aviv, Haifa (Matam), and Jerusalem (Technology Park, Malha, Har Hotzvim and JVP Media Quarter in Talpiot) although some secondary with additional activity include the corridor to Beer Sheba, including Kiryat Gat, and the Western Galilee, including Yokneam Illit. In all, this is an area no larger than 6000 square kilometers, half of the extended Silicon Valley's geographical coverage.
