Unless Israel became a member of the EU the Tel-Aviv startup hub probably does not have too great a benefit for Europe. For a startup hub to affect a country (maybe throw in some quotes for Europe), it seems to me that the following are necessary: - any citizen needs to have the ability to relocate to the hub easily ie no immigration paperwork - the country needs to be able to tax the income generated by the hub - most importantly, the hub needs to be located within its borders so that the region can reap the side-benefits of the hub. This is the same kind of reason statesmen like things like particle accelerators built within their districts any others?
