The Consulate of Israel to South India, headquartered in Bengaluru is dedicated to promoting diplomatic and trade relations, between the state of Israel and India.
Welcome to the website of the Consulate General of Israel to South India. The Consulate promotes mutually beneficial cooperation between Israel and South Indian partners in government and across civil society in fields of mutual interest, including hi-tech and innovation, agriculture, water partnerships, cyber security, digital healthcare, arts and culture, academia and inter-community relations.
Our Consulate in Bengaluru is not just a symbol of the strengthening relations between Israel and India but a real manifestation of the progress Israel and India have made through the years.
Israel is a flourishing high tech hub, leading the world in many indicators of innovations, technology and research, Bengaluru is the Silicon Valley of India, playing host to numerous leading high-tech, biotech and scientific companies and institution. It was therefore only natural that Israel opened a Diplomatic representation in Bengaluru.
The States of Southern India – Karnataka, Kerala and Tamil Nadu are very unique and significant. They required a dedicated Israeli Consulate in Bengaluru to develop the commercial, academic and cultural relations, as well as to increase co-operation in the fields of agriculture, development, education, healthcare and more than all between people. Israel and the states of South India complement one another, creating a strong synergy that is already benefitting both the sides. We can all be rest assured that this viable partnership will only grow stronger with time.
The Consul General, Ms. Tammy Ben-Haim along with his team aims to create platforms to both Indians and Israeli people and companies to be able to take active part in creating meaningful Indo-Israeli partnerships in various arenas.
This website is designed to be a resource of information on Israel as well as information on the activities of the Consulate and to provide updates on the Mission's activities to the general public.
