| The Ultra-Orthodox: Fearing for Their Future |
|
Many changes have taken place in the Ultra-Orthodox population in recent years
as a result of the development of new options for academic and professional
training for this sector. A real need for the assessment of these programs and
frameworks has developed, which will entail an evaluation of the suitability of
these frameworks to the needs of the population for which it is intended and the
level of willingness of young Ultra-Orthodox to take advantage of them. The
goal of this research is to examine the attitudes of the Ultra-Orthodox towards
the pursuit of academic education and to identify the primary obstacles to their
integration into different paths of academic study. |

| Summary of the JIIS' Study of Israeli Incubation Program |
|
The Israeli Technological Incubators Program was established as part of the
immigrant absorption from the Soviet Union at the 90th. It was a common perception that a large portion of the immigrants included engineers and other professionals with scientific knowledge and initiative abilities, which due to a variety of difficulties concerning the absorption in the new country, could be unutilized. During the following years, the incubator program was seen as a significant player in supporting and encouraging young entrepreneurs who wish to build an initiative technology-based firm. In addition, today they are conceived as an important instrument in promoting and developing of the Israeli periphery. |

| Final Report on Bio-Link Project |
|
The quality of scientific research in Europe is undisputed, but turning academic research into viable businesses requires considerable support. The entrepreneurs in the biotechnology industry are mostly scientists and researchers from academic institutions and as such, lack the business skills and experience necessary to succeed. Realizing this need, many regions have implemented specific measures to support biotechnology start- up companies. Technology incubators specializing in biotechnology (bioincubators) have become a key instrument in the fostering of the biotechnology industry. |
