BioAbroad puts now more emphasis on
keeping in touch with Israelis abroad. In this
newsletter we included two new sections: News from
Israel and Open Positions that we hope will assist
you.
- IP database - BioAbroad would like to build a data
base for Israeli IP abroad. If you have a
provisional or registered IP that you are interested
in commercializing please contact rami@BioAbroad.org.il for more
details.
- Last chance to register to the Ministry of
Absorption's "Coming Home" program. Click here.
- Following many requests from new post-docs we
prepared an FAQ document
that is relevant for both new and existing
post-docs.
- We have two new sponsors that bring benefits to
our members: ooVoo provides
the next generation of video communication
platform with enhanced human interface, we
believe ooVoo will enable to improve your
communication with your friends, family and colleagues
in Israel. United
Revenues is a national tax accounting
firm that specializes in tax cuts for Israelis abroad,
see United Revenues coupon below.
- Please make sure that your details in our website
are updated and include a CV. This is important
for job hunting, networking and new
collaborations! Check or update your details here.
As always, we ask you to spread the word about our
activity and suggest new ideas that will enable
more people to return to find fulfilling jobs in
Israel.
