The Israel Innovation Authority is an independent public entity within Israel's government administration tasked with shaping the nation's innovation policy. It advises the government and Knesset committees on policy, monitors shifts in the domestic and international innovation landscape, and collaborates with counterpart agencies to promote technological progress across industry and economy. Based in Jerusalem, it works to strengthen the national innovation ecosystem by offering programs and support mechanisms tailored to the needs of diverse actors, including early-stage entrepreneurs, established product developers, academic groups, multinational corporations seeking Israeli technology, and traditional manufacturers seeking to modernize operations. In June 2026, the Authority announced a collaboration with the Ministry of Defense's Directorate of Defense Research & Development to launch a call for proposals for an advanced R&D infrastructure in integrated photonics.
