Speaker: Jacob Nagel, Professor, Technion
Talk Title: Israel National Security Challenges and its Impact on Force Buildup and Technological Developments, focusing on the Technion Center for Science Security and Technology
Abstract: This seminar (60-90 minutes) will combine topics from my past positions at the Israeli Ministry of Defense and as Israeli National Security Advisor, and in my current position as head of the Technion Center for Science Security and Technology (CSST).
I am continually changing and updating my presentation according to worldwide events and technological advances. This presentation includes current and past events, as well as some anecdotes during some interesting meetings in Israel and around the world. As part of the seminar, I will show movies, photos, and technological demonstrations. Moreover, I will discuss the US-Israel MOU agreement (worth $38B, led and signed by me in 2016) and the special relationship between Israel and the US. Additionally, I will highlight my Technion Center activities and options for cooperation.
