Yours, Michel Weinberg CEO AHK Israel Michel Weinberg Dear friends and colleagues, O ver the years, Israel and Germany have built a relationship rooted in shared values, mutual respect and a strong commitment to democracy, innovation and economic collaboration. What began as a courageous political step has developed into a deep and dynamic partnership, particularly in the fields of trade, technology, research, and industrial cooperation. The 60 th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Israel and Germany also marks the evolution of the bilateral trade relations and the increase of economic exchange into a strong business cooperation. The business ties between our two countries are a cornerstone of this relationship. Germany is Israel’s most important economic partner in Europe, while Israeli innovation, entrepreneurship, and technological excellence are highly valued by German partners. In 2024 , bilateral trade in goods between Israel and Germany reached over eight billion Dollars. The amount of business delegations in both directions every year are proof for themutually based interest in joint projects in advanced manufacturing, cybersecurity, life sciences, and sustainability.
