10 Israeli Startups Presented at TWS2009 - Take a Look
TWS2009 is an Israeli tech conference that occurred last week in Tel-Aviv, Israel. The focal point of the conference for me was the ten companies that were showcased on stage. Some might be familiar already, some perhaps not but all are worth keeping an eye on.
Before I start with the list, I just want to mention the fact that Israeli startups never fail to impress me. Since I live in Israel, I get to see so many new applications that still in their early stages firsthand. Some of them are sometimes only in the conceptual stages, but I'm telling you right now - be prepared cause where I'm standing from, there's still a lot to await. And yes, that's always exciting.

The Kids Kingdom
I have to admit it was surprising to see three kids services in a list of just ten, though they are all certainly worthy. What can I say... we're doing some fun & safe Internet for kids here. (and even more to come this year)
