Tel Aviv's Start-up Community Looking for Bigger Growth - Less Traction Than Predicted

FinTech start-up exits the last four years. Israeli entrepreneurs & investors are looking for a faster / bigger trend (statistica)

FinTech entrepreneurs & investors are a bit frustrated here these days. They are not sure why the start-up flow is slow. Israelis are looking at the global FinTech growth (especially in San Francisco) where investment in new start-ups is growint quickly. Some estimate more than 1,000 new start-ups the last 18 months. Moran Faibish in a recent meetup  talk, thinks the shortage of financial engineers, a new breed of  programmers, mathematicians, and financial market expertise is to blame. His take is focused around the need for moving hi-tech workers into the FinTech with an intensive training program. See article on Tel Aviv Living blog.
