COIL’s mission to connect Colorado and Israel’s innovation ecosystems came alive in August as we hosted an Israel Space Tech Delegation visit to Colorado in partnership with the Israel Economic Mission to the South & Midwest U.S.
See our summary posts here and here.
From Series A startups to publicly traded leaders on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange, the Israeli space innovation companies presented bold innovations in earth observation, planetary exploration, next-gen communications, and navigation systems.
🇮🇱 The Israeli company presenters included: ALWAYS CONNECT AI | Cybord | Elbit Systems | KAYA Vision | Orbit Communication Systems | PerCiv | SIM.SPACE | Sixdof Space | Wipro Aerospace | IAI - Israel Aerospace Industries (did not attend).
CO-IL helped arrange three programs designed to facilitate connections and opportunities between the visiting Israeli companies and Colorado leaders in the space and aerospace industries.
Together with Holland & Knight LLP law firm, we welcomed the delegation to H&K’s downtown Denver offices for a half-day packed with cutting-edge tech showcases, strategy sessions, and insider insights on entering the U.S. market. Headlined by former U.S. Congressmen Ed Perlmutter and Ron Klein, the program delivered a powerhouse lineup from H&K’s International Trade, Israel, and National Security practices, tackling the legal, regulatory, and policy realities that international companies must navigate.
CO-IL also arranged for the delegation to visit the U.S. headquarters offices of Astroscale, where the Colorado-Israel space collaboration story is already being written in the stars. In 2020, Astroscale U.S. launched Astroscale Israel in Tel Aviv after acquiring Effective Space Solutions, an Israeli satellite life-extension company.
We concluded with a half-day program and luncheon hosted at Metro Denver EDC in partnership with the Colorado Space Coalition, Colorado Space Business Roundtable, and Greenberg Traurig, LLP.
To every founder, engineer, and innovator we hosted in Denver, thank you. If you’re a Colorado company interested in partnering with the next Israeli delegation or joining a COIL program in Israel, now’s the time to connect.
These opportunities move fast, and they’re built to last.
