The Lone Star State’s economic ties to Israel are expanding beyond fossil fuels.
“What drives the Texas economy is exactly where Israel innovates the most: energy efficiency, water conservation and treatment, cyber security, health care innovation,” said Toba Hellerstein, CEO of the Texas-Israel Alliance.
