An accelerator center was inaugurated in Isfiya in the name of Lt. Col. Mahmoud Khair al-Din, a Druze officer who was killed in a covert operation in Gaza in 2018. This is the first program for the Druze community in Isfiya aimed at promoting startup companies in their early stages and integrating young community members into high-tech companies in Israel. The accelerator was initiated by Quftan Halabi, a public activist and recipient of the President's Award for his work on behalf of the Druze in Israel and founder of the Association for the Advancement of the Druze Soldier.
