About Tel Aviv's time zone

Tel Aviv (and all of Israel) follows Israel Standard Time (IST, UTC+2) in winter and Israel Daylight Time (IDT, UTC+3) in summer. Israel's DST schedule is set by the government each year and doesn't follow a fixed formula — it typically runs from late March to late October, but the exact dates vary. Israel is 2 hours ahead of London in winter and 3 hours ahead in summer. Tel Aviv is a major global tech hub, home to the second-highest density of startups per capita after Silicon Valley.

Did you know? Israel's tech sector is known as the 'Startup Nation' — a country of 9 million people has produced more NASDAQ-listed companies than any European country. Israeli tech founders often schedule early morning calls (6:00-7:00 AM IST) to reach US West Coast VCs at the end of their previous business day (8:00-9:00 PM PT), turning the time zone challenge into a productivity advantage.
