The much anticipated IsraelWebTour, hosted by The California Israel Chamber of Commerce (CICC), starts this week.
To kick things off, we asked the 15 startups who will tour Silicon Valley to create a short video to give as a sneak peak of their company and also the people behind it. The initial series is now up on BlogTV with more to come. To watch the official intro video featuring Deb Schultz and Shuly Galili, click here.
The Tour will kick off on February 4th, 2008 when CEOs from Israel’s most exciting startups arrive in Silicon Valley for a week of activities.
The highlight of the week will be a public showcase on Wednesday, February 6h hosted at Microsoft where each start-up will present to the industry and press. Tickets are available here. Enter code IWT2008 for a $25 discount.
The tour will end with a closing night party in San Francisco at Slide on February 7th. If you attend the show, you’re automatically in.
