About Nura Global Innovation Lab (formerly Pears Program for Global Innovation)
NURA Global Innovaiton Lab works to increase Israel’s contribution to international development through technology-based, financially sustainable solutions to problems facing people affected by poverty. We believe in the transformative power of values-driven innovation to improve the lives of people all over the world. What we do & Why we do it Israel is one of the world’s most innovative countries. However, the vast majority of technologies only benefit the 15% of the planet’s population living in high-income countries. We are dedicated to harnessing the power of Israeli innovation to address the needs of the remaining 85% of the world population. By building bridges to the needs, opportunities and peoples of the developing world we hope to enable Israeli entrepreneurs and innovators to play a larger role in addressing the most pressing challenges of our time: ensuring water, food, clean energy, education and healthcare for all.
