A question:
People often speak about Israel's tremendous entrepreneurial spirit and success - what in your view is the key challenge to maintaining this success in the future?

Please feel free to share your opinion in the comments.
I'm speaking on a panel this coming Monday and it would be interesting to share some of these inputs.

The panel topic is:
"Silicon Wadi Meets Silicon Valley: Entrepreneurship and Innovation in Israel and the U.S" and it will take place at San Jose State University, 8 February at 5:30pm (feel free to join if in the area).
On the panel with me will be Jason Wolf, VP Business Development at Better Place, and David Perlmutter, Executive Vice President at Intel.

There are 3 things that i can put on from the top of my mind:
Maintaining and nurturing the top notch technology units in the IDF
Continuous investments in R&D (by the government and other investors)
Strong educational system (not necessarily technological focused)
