Israeli Tech Workers Leave Country in Exodus
|
8.2
Between October 2023 and July 2024, roughly 8,300 high‑tech employees left Israel, government data show. Business Insider interviewed three departing tech workers who cited security concerns after Oct. 7, political uncertainty, and rising living costs and salaries misaligned with expenses. The departures, about 2.1% of the 2024 high‑tech workforce, pose risks to Israel's talent‑dependent economy and innovation clusters.
