What our graduates say about us
I was privileged to participate in the Galil Accelerator with what was still a preliminary idea. The accelerator enriched me with confidence and tools to run forward and eventually establish a successful startup. I met potential customers which became design partners / buying customers.
Guy Eron
I highly recommend the Galil Accelerator to any founder of smart manufacturing startups. Our experience was excellent, thanks to the program’s exceptional lectures, invaluable connections with industrial companies, and the guidance of dedicated mentors like Rami Duek (Netafim), Avi Koren (RobotX), and Ayala Zilberman
Mika Ari
Participating in the Galilee Accelerator program made us think as a startup, dream big and accelerate our growth. It made us pitch perfectly and deliver our message effectively. We were introduced to top level managers in the manufacturing industry, which led to insights and also to important sales.
Tomer Israeli
The Galil Accelerator provided us with an invaluable opportunity to gain early insights into the market. Their structured approach helped us access potential customers and receive critical feedback, enabling us to refine Jiga’s offering.
Adar Hay
Participating in the Galil Accelerator taught me two important lessons: how to adapt my value proposition to what customers actually need, and what investors care about. Many thanks to Rami Gazit, former program director, and the team of mentors, who still support my work today on a voluntary basis.
