☆ Op-ed: After crisis, Israel's economy always comes back stronger
  + stars: | 2023-12-12 | by ( Anat Katz | Economic Minister To North America For Israel'S Ministry Of Economy | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +2 min
In just a few hours, the nation of Israel went from business as usual to national emergency and national mourning. Throughout this ongoing crisis, the resilience of Israel's economy has once again taken center stage. This should be no surprise, as resilience has always been a key tenet of Israel's long-term success, military or otherwise. Most recently, the Covid-19 pandemic struck a terrible blow to Israel's economy in the second quarter of 2020, reducing GDP by roughly 30% annualized. The Tel Aviv Stock Exchange's flagship TA-125 Index dropped over 8% in that war's opening days, but took only 40 days to recover to pre-war levels.

☆ Nominate a company for CNBC's 2024 Disruptor 50 list

CNBC is now accepting nominations for the 2024 Disruptor 50 list — our annual look at the most innovative venture-backed companies using breakthrough technology to meet increasing economic and consumer challenges. A notable past Disruptor 50 company that made it to the public market this year, Instacart , has failed to maintain its IPO pricing. Business failures, too, have occurred for formerly high-flying, high-profile backed Disruptor 50 companies, including Convoy and WeWork. This is especially true of companies involved in the booming AI hype cycle sparked by 2023's top Disruptor 50 company, OpenAI, just over a year ago. 2024 honorees will be notified in April, and the list will be released in May across CNBC's TV and digital platforms.
