Few people would connect the drab olive green of Steven
an Israeli army uniform with the cutting edge of Sinofsky
fashion. And most fans of Stylit, a website where
a virtual personal stylist matches clothes and
accessories to suit your taste, are unaware that it
uses technology adapted from algorithms
originally developed to track and prevent
suicide bombings.
Stylit was one of 19 young tech companies
displaying their wares in Tel Aviv recently at the
end of a five-month entrepreneurship
programme run by alumni of an Israeli
intelligence unit that has spawned more tech
millionaires than many business schools.
Similar to Britain's GCHQ, Unit 8200
manages Israel's army signals intelligence,
sucking in and analysing vast amounts of
electronic data, from wiretapped phone calls and
emails to microwave and satellite broadcasts. On Luxury Apartment - Israel

With the emergence of consumer apps based on Training
crunching vast amounts of information known as ww.aumentestyles_om
"big data", Israel is a decade ahead of the US and
Europe — and all because of the military.

New startups such as Stylit hope to emulate the
success of Waze, a big-data-based driving app
developed by former IDF cyber-squaddies and
bought by Google for more than $ibn (£654m).

address the problems we are aiming to solve in
fashion," said Yaniv Nissim, a former 8200
programmer who designed the company's
algorithm by combining the wisdom of former
army tech geeks with fashion industry stylists.
'The technology is mainly machine-learning
technology. It's how to take huge amounts of
information and from that to understand users'
behaviour."
Big data predictive algorithms developed to
prevent enemy attacks also power Any.Do, one of
the world's most popular productivity apps for
mobile devices. For Nissim's army buddies, 8200
is Israeli hi-tech's old school tie, opening doors
to a vast group of like-minded and similarly-
trained entrepreneurs. Rompr is a mobile app

about activities for toddlers. Chief executive Noa
Levy and the three co-founders all served in elite
IDF tech units.
'Trying to make sense of the patterns you find
when you study a lot of data and turning that
into actionable information — that's the guiding
principle that we have in Rompr and also
something that is very important in those
technological units," she says.
"It's more the mindset than the actual
technology. Then you can go out and do it on a
completely different series of tasks, using the
same methodology."
Until a decade ago, Unit 8200 was a secret. Then
it starred in the book Start-Up Nation, which
chronicled Israel's emergence as a hi-tech
powerhouse with more venture capital
investment per person than anywhere in the
world and the largest number of Nasdaq-listed
companies after the US and China. Three years
ago, 8200 alumni decided to emerge from the
shadows and offer their expertise to other young
Israeli entrepreneurs.
The result was the 8200 entrepreneurship and
innovation support program (EISP), a five-
month hi-tech incubator in which unit alumni
volunteer to mentor early-stage startups. So far,
22 of them have received funding totalling $21m
(£13.5m) and employ 2OO people, joining the
230,000 employees of Israel's 5,000 tech
companies that earn $25bn a year — a quarter of
Israel's total exports.

Nir Lempert, a reserve colonel, former deputy
commander of Unit 8200 and chairman of its
alumni association, says the unit handpicks the
brightest teenagers in the country then trains
them to solve problems in multidisciplinary
teams using methods usually associated with
business, not battles. They are encouraged to
think differently. "The central mission of the unit
is to save lives, to prevent terror and other
attacks," says Lempert. "We teach our people
that the mission is so important that there is no
possibility of failure."
The 8200 legend attracts increasing numbers of
young Israelis into IDF tech units. Mamram, the
main IT support unit of the IDF, now offers a six-
month pre-army course at its headquarters base
in a suburban street on the outskirts of Tel Aviv.
From dawn into the night, recruits study
programming skills, teamwork, project
management and - most important — how to be
creative. It's the ultimate startup boot camp.
