A total of 75 agreements totalling $220 million in "seed" finance were disclosed by LeumiTech and the Israel Venture Capital Research Centre. The rise in foreign involvement in Q4 demonstrated the availability of investment funding. Israels economy depends heavily on this industry, which accounts for over half of exports and 12% of jobs. Israeli entrepreneurs raised $7 billion in 2023 instead of $16 billion in 2022, primarily due to investor fears regarding judicial system reforms and the global economic downturn.

Like ChatGPT, Baidus Ernie Bot has over 100 million users, according to Wang Haifeng, the companys CTO. After a testing phase and public debut in August, Ernie Bot made the news during a conference in Beijing.

The Maldives Inland Income Authority MIRA said their total income for November 2023 was MVR 1.67 billion, representing a 10.5% rise over the same month in 2022.

The favourable result was further influenced by the 3.5% rise in tourist arrivals in October 2023, the expatriate quota charge, and the Tourism Land Rent dues collection. GST 67.16%, Income Tax 6.60%, Green Tax 5.10%, Airport Development Fee 4.50%, and Departure Tax 4.34% are the primary sources of revenue. The entire amount collected is 9.3% more than expected.
