USA - Amazon to Buy Israeli AI Company

US technology giant Amazon is negotiating the acquisition of Israeli AI company Decart in a deal that could reach a valuation of $7 billion, according to a report in “The Wall Street Journal.”

Decart was founded in 2023 by brothers Dean and Orian Leitersdorf and Moshe Shalev. The company builds real-time generative AI video models and AI infrastructure to create interactive digital and physical worlds. It has so far raised over $400 million from investors that include Sequoia Capital, Benchmark, and Radical Ventures. In May this year it was valued at almost $4 billion, such that the reported deal with Amazon represents a 75% increase within just five months.

If a deal is signed with Amazon at the reported valuation, it will be one of the biggest ever exits in the history of Israel’s technology industry, and one of the biggest acquisitions by Amazon in recent years.

Commentary: This is significant, because the eCommerce giant Amazon sees a future in Israel.

But there is more; Google, Nvidia, and CrowdStrike continue negotiations for a place in Israel.

From Europe, we hear that over 40 prominent European corporations seek outposts in Israel’s “Silicon Wadi” (Israel’s version of Silicon Valley, found mostly around Tel Aviv).

Among auto giants, Volkswagen, Porshe, Volvo, and industrial electronic leaders Bosch and Nokia continue to show interest.

From Asia, we hear that “South Korea (NongHyup Financial Group) and Japan have established multi-million-dollar joint ventures targeting Israel’s deep tech quantum computer and semiconductor developments.”

Here we are reminded of Micah 4:1: “But in the last days it shall come to pass, that the mountain of the house of the LORD shall be established in the top of the mountains, and it shall be exalted above the hills; and people shall flow unto it.”
