Turning innovation into a force that saves lives
We harness the power of Israeli tech together with the country's leading researchers and institutions, to create real impact for cancer patients.
Why now?
Cancer is the leading cause of death in Israel.
Every 18 minutes, another Israeli is diagnosed with cancer.
One in four Israelis will develop cancer in their lifetime.
An initiative born from a real need for change
Tech4Cancer was founded out of the personal journey of Gal Avital, who survived cancer twice, and Idan Megidish — her partner and a social entrepreneur.
