In what has become a staple of lists that review the top startup hubs in the world, a recently published list by Sparklabs Global Ventures has listed Tel Aviv as the number three global startup hub. The list has Tel Aviv right behind Silicon Valley and Stockholm, and ahead of New York City, Los Angeles, London, Berlin and Beijing. With an enormous amount of startups starting their way in Israel every year, it is no wonder the country’s most common nickname is “Startup Nation.” It also comes as no surprise that when the partners at Y Combinator, a leading Silicon Valley based investor that provides seed funding for startups, recently took a whirlwind global tour, a stop in Tel Aviv was on the itinerary.
