Israel
* Our team won the 2nd place at the national contest between the NESS program's startups,for an original, innovative and groundbreaking idea.Technological Leadership and Knowledge Management Development Program (CTM-Ed - Certification Technology Management) is a unique collaboration between the Ness Technologies Company, the IDF, the academy, and local authorities.The program's goal is to nurture leadership among highly-skilled teenagers in an advanced technological environment.Developing leadership and teamwork abilities while exposing the students to biotechnology, nano-technology, artificial intelligence and software engineering, enables raising a generation that can lead a vision and an ethical commitment to values, driving relationships, the ability to function in complex environments and under complex conditions, and flexibility that enables change.Within the program, students raise groundbreaking technological ideas that bring technological and social tidings. The idea's conception forms the initial spark for a start-up in an advanced technological world and the reality of research and development. Students learn to analyze and characterize the technological components and variables in a characterization document, write an academic research paper that forms the academic basis for development, and build a computer simulation that demonstrates the idea.
