Arieli Innovate

One of Israel's leading desert agriculture facilities, a partnership between Arieli Capital, Ramat Negev R&D center, and Ramat Negev Industries. Frontier has created a groundbreaking agritech innovation center that combines the agricultural assets and know-how of Ramat Negev regional council (an area covering more than 20% of Israel's landmass) with the international business infrastructure of Arieli Capital.

Together, our goal is to identify, validate and scale innovative startups in areas of major impact: agritech, water-tech, environment, and sustainability.

Frontier is becoming a global hub for arid land agriculture. In the past year alone, Frontier hosted guests from around the world including official delegations from Utah, Brazil, and Slovenia in order to build and progress the desert-tech ecosystem.
