Well, what's the VC per capita for Haifa? Why do you think it's interesting to compare the area with the highest concentration of startups in the US to another entire country? Either compare country-to-country or highly concentrated startup area-to-highly concentrated startup area. I doubt there are more startups in Eilat than there are in Boise.



What is the number for Haifa? I genuinely would like to know.

Separately, I am not trying to be a valley-partisan, just noting that the number for silicon valley is much higher than for the country of Israel, as you would expect. I don't even live anywhere near the valley.


Yes, but it's a silly comparison. Israel has areas like the Valley too.


The number for the valley would be even higher if you just took the counties from San Jose to SF, and excluded all of the East Bay, Marin, etc.
