Elliot Dater Quoted in Pitt Business Magazine Article “Israel Rising”

In its Spring 2013 edition, the University of Pittsburgh’s Joseph M. Katz Graduate School of Business & College of Business Administration’s Pitt Business Magazine published “Israel Rising” which featured analysis from Schnader partner Elliot Dater regarding the business opportunities between Pittsburgh and Israel.

Mr. Dater sees parallels between Israel’s innovation ecosystem and technology-based economic developments taking root in Pittsburgh. “I think Pittsburgh makes a lot of sense for Israeli companies. Our research institutions provide outstanding human capital. There is a lower cost structure for operations. The local community is supportive and energetic. And with Pittsburgh Technology Council, Innovation Works, the Pittsburgh Life Sciences Greenhouse, and others, there is a similar environment for similar industries.”

Mr. Dater, an adjunct law professor in Pitt’s School of Law, represents Israeli clients in the United States. He previously spent seven years practicing law in Tel Aviv, representing emerging growth companies in the technology, medical device, and life sciences industries.
