Innovation Soroka Medical Center is at the epicenter of research and
innovation in Israel’s Negev together with the Beer-Sheva
Municipality, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, the Beer-Sheva
High-Tech Park, and the IDF’s Telecommunications Campus.
Here, our remarkable professionals are charting the future of
healthcare. It is our mission to provide them with every tool they
need to achieve breakthroughs for Israel and the world.

Healthcare organizations are constantly evolving to improve the
quality of care and expand the services they provide by adopting
new solutions and technologies.

Soroka leads collaborations with the scientific community,
industry, and the wider community. Soroka is a key partner in
the formation, execution, and operation of the first innovation
district in Israel, located in Beer-Sheva. We have also established
an innovation center with ELTA Systems Ltd. and Israel Aerospace
Industries where ideas for the development of medical devices
and ground-breaking uses of artificial intelligence and machine
learning will be germinated. We integrate innovative technologies
into medical procedures, for example by using virtual reality in
surgery and employing existing procedures in innovative ways.

To stay ahead of the curve and ensure it remains at the
forefront of innovation, Soroka Medical Center is establishing
a new, unique Innovation Center at the heart of the hospital’s
campus. Soroka’s Innovation Center will provide a platform,
infrastructure, and environment that enable innovative ideas
to grow and support entrepreneurial needs. The Innovation
Center will serve as a platform where researchers, hospital staff,
graduate and medical students, and external stakeholders meet
and exchange ideas, knowledge, and insights.
