Israeli companies showcased their technologies at Romania’s Airport Authority Conference, for the first time, aiming to equip the country’s airports with some of the most advanced defense and monitoring systems in the world
CONSTANȚA, Romania, Aug. 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — IMPROVATE, an Israeli company co-owned by Irina Nevzlin and Ronit Hassin Hochman, was selected as a partner by the Romanian Airport Authority and brought together nine leading Israeli companies to participate in the event.

Held annually in Constanța, a city on the Black Sea, the Romanian Airport Authority conference took place August 22-23 and focused on new security challenges. Due to increasing tensions across Europe, particularly in Eastern European countries near Ukraine, many nations are bolstering their security measures, particularly at borders and entry points, to prevent potential spillovers from the Russia-Ukraine conflict.
Consequently, the Romanian government sought to innovate its traditional airport conference by partnering with IMPROVATE. The objective was to organize a series of presentations from advanced Israeli defense technology companies, highlighting the latest developments in global security to local airport authorities.
Ronit Hassin Hochman, CEO of IMPROVATE, stated: “We are in a period of global security instability. Many European countries are restocking their defense supplies and seeking the latest technological advancements in defense and security.

This conference provided an invaluable platform for Israeli companies to present their capabilities to Romania’s top security officials, resulting in numerous deals and collaborations.”

The company operates globally, with a focus on international expansion.OBS (Ocean Bricks System): Offers advanced technological solutions for building artificial islands, breakwaters, ports, marinas, offshore wind turbine foundations, and artificial reefs.The conference was attended by the CEOs and security officers of Romania’s major airports, including Bucharest, Iași, Timișoara, and Craiova. The participants aimed to acquire and implement advanced Israeli defense technologies. Over the two-day event, Israeli companies presented their products and innovations to key decision-makers, followed by extensive meetings to facilitate potential deals and the adoption of these technologies in local airports.
Reports from the conference indicated strong interest from Romanian airports, and several agreements are expected to be finalized in the coming months, leading to the implementation of Israeli technologies.
Next month, IMPROVATE will host a “Smart Cities Conference” in Budapest, featuring fifteen major European cities exposed to innovative technologies from Israeli companies such as Tondo Smart, IPlus Cyber, Ipgallery, Ok2go, Wise Mon, Atmosfir, Galileo, Giv Solutions, and more.

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia, Sept. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — The Global AI Summit (GAIN) in Riyadh concluded on a high, after the summit welcomed more than 30,000 delegates from across the globe over three days. The live stream of the summit, organized by the Saudi Data and AI Authority (SDAIA), received 3.7m views.

Building on the success of previous editions, GAIN 2024 featured more than 450 speakers from 100 countries, participating in 150 sessions. It also witnessed over 25 launches and announcements, and facilitated the signing of over 80 agreements and Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs).
The summit has grown exponentially since its inception in 2020. Its growing prominence reflects the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia’s role in advancing AI capabilities as it positions itself as a global leader in this space.
The key output from the summit was the need for governments and policy makers to take global action to ensure that AI technology evolves for the good of humanity. Central to responsible evolution is an ethical framework and robust governance.
To support the advancement of AI ethics and governance, SDAIA announced the Riyadh Charter of Artificial Intelligence for the Islamic World in collaboration with the Islamic World Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (ICESCO). This promotes ethical AI grounded in Islamic values and principles, as well as sustainable development through international cooperation.
SDAIA has played a pivotal role in forging key collaborations to strengthen local and regional AI solutions, signing MoUs with Microsoft Arabia to develop Arabic language models, IBM for a Center of Excellence in Generative AI technologies, and NVIDIA to scale AI infrastructure across the Kingdom.
The summit also marked several major milestones. Alongside the unveiling of ALLaM, the world’s most advanced Arabic Language Model, other diverse initiatives such as the Global AI Community, the THAKAI Platform, and guidelines for addressing deepfake technology.
Furthermore, the launch of the Generative AI Center of Excellence by the Digital Cooperation Organization (DCO), the agreement to open an International Center for AI Research and Ethics (ICAIRE) as a UNESCO Category 2 Center, further underscored the impact of GAIN 2024.
The summit itself provided the platform for companies from all over the world to showcase the latest AI technologies and innovations, including AI generated avatars, AI generated artwork, and even Robotic bar staff serving beverages.
The summit closed with an inspirational speech from the Director of Saudi Arabia’s National Information Center, His Excellency Dr. Esam Alwagait, in which he thanked participants:
“Your candid perspectives have not only inspired us with the vision of what lies ahead, but have also grounded us in the realities we must face. Together, we have not only imagined the future of AI, but have also made it real by addressing the challenges and identifying the enablers needed to truly unlock its potential.”
He added:
“It has been incredibly inspiring to see the world come together here in Riyadh, united by momentum to make AI work for everyone. The commitment to collaborative action has been evident throughout the summit.” 
The success of GAIN 2024 ensures that the Kingdom’s AI infrastructure will be significantly strengthened and has cemented Saudi Arabia position at the center of global AI.
