About the track
The tech industry, despite the challenging situation in the country, continues to show resilience as the sole export sector that operates fully during the war. It not only remains stable but also continues to evolve. Despite the difficult situation, we see growth in the Defence Tech sector and the emergence of new startups in this field. In 2023, IT Arena will partner with Brave1, the Defense Technology Development Cluster, and introduce a special category for defence tech startups within the Startup Competition at IT Arena.
