About

The Israeli Ministry of Economy and Industry funds capital investment, manufacturing, employment, and green-economy transitions across Israeli industry. Its grant-issuing arm — the Authority for Investments and Development of the Industry and Economy — operates under the Encouragement of Capital Investments Law (ECIL, 1959) to provide grants and benefits to the industrial and business sectors.

The Investment Authority runs three grant families: (1) ECIL capital grants for factory establishment, expansion, and relocation in national priority areas; (2) employment integration tracks targeting high-wage job creation and special-population absorption; and (3) green-economy tracks supporting industrial decarbonisation under Israel's carbon-tax framework. All grants are published as Director General Directives (4.x series) and administered via the Kalkalit digital platform.

Note: R&D and deep-tech grants commonly attributed to the Israeli government are issued by the Israel Innovation Authority (il-iia), which is operationally independent despite sitting within the Ministry's policy umbrella. MOEI's own investment authority focuses on manufacturing, capital investment, and employment — not R&D.
