(Times of Israel) Shoshanna Solomon - "All my life I have worked to ensure that Israel's future is based on science and technology as well as on an unwavering moral commitment," Shimon Peres said in a speech in July, when he laid the cornerstone for the Israeli Innovation Center, which will be part of the Peres Peace House in Jaffa. "They called me a dreamer. But today, when I look at Israel, we all can see clearly that the greater the dream, the more spectacular the results." Peres called upon Israel's neighbors to join forces to create a "startup region." "Not only Israel should benefit from the fruit of innovation, but the whole region. Let us adopt the road to peace and innovation, which will always be better than war and terror." He concluded: "Finally, I have one small request - Israel is a dream that came true. Permit me to continue to dream."
