Israel Plus: Israeli content is ready for its global moment
As audiences embrace stories from beyond their borders, Israel Plus is opening Israeli culture, creativity and entertainment to the world - now in English.
Israel possesses one of the world's most dynamic creative industries, with Israeli television formats, technology, chefs, musicians, filmmakers, and entrepreneurs achieving global recognition. However, much of Israel's cultural content has remained inaccessible to international audiences due to language barriers. Streaming platforms have transformed how audiences discover entertainment, breaking geographical limitations.
This has created an opportunity for Israeli content to follow suit. "Now in English" is not merely about translation, but about making Israeli culture more accessible and relatable to viewers worldwide. By allowing audiences from New York, London, Sydney, or São Paulo to connect with Israeli people, humor, food, and stories, Israel Plus aims to foster a unique relationship between these viewers and the country.
This extends beyond Christians and Evangelicals, to people fascinated by Israeli technology and innovation, and viewers interested in food, travel, music, sport, and human stories. Israel Plus seeks to broaden the picture of Israel, presenting a mosaic of stories that go beyond news coverage. Through entertainment, viewers can experience Israeli history, family traditions, landscapes, and entrepreneurial spirit.
The goal is to create a connection with Israel that may not have otherwise existed. Israel Plus is already available on major television platforms in the US, Canada, and across Europe, with plans to expand into Latin America and other digital services. However, the vision extends beyond television. Israel Plus aims to become the global home of Israeli content, connecting international audiences with various aspects of Israeli life, such as tourism, immigration, real estate, innovation, and business development.
Israeli technology and innovation have already proven their global appeal, and Israeli content can follow suit by showcasing the creativity, culture, and innovation that define the country. By exposing audiences to Israel's diverse stories, Israel Plus hopes to shift perceptions and transform Israel from merely a news headline to a global home where the world can discover its richness.
