On top of my head only from HW perspective, one of biggest Intel microprocessors R&D centers is located in Haifa IL (recently leading the Ice Lake - Core i9) and manufacturing center in Kiryat Gat. Intel also acquired MobileEye for their autonomous cars technology. Apple had a few acquisitions in the recent years such as Primesense (the inventors of MS XBOX Kinect sensors), KLA acquired Orbotech, IBM acquired Trusteer and so on. Moving this thread to SW will make it blast. Either way, the contributions of such a small country to the tech world is not proportional.

Still, the country is terrible at turning successful startups into big, stable firms.

Forgot to mention how often Intel threatened to close shop if it want get the tax exemptions it insisted on. So, let's be honest, there's hardly anything special about this pattern of corporate investment and outsourcing of development.
