“The Network has served the State of Israel by educating and nurturing our most precious resource, the eager young minds of our children. They ensure the prosperous future of Israel by creating quality educational opportunities in the fields of science and technology.”

He said, “The future of these students remains bright, as graduates they go on to work as engineers, senior military personnel, high-tech inventors and scientists . . . As our children grow, they will no doubt emerge as leaders of society who will contribute to the world with their creativity and talent.”
