    The innovation hub aims to bridge local and international insurance and financial corporations, including Generali, AIG, and Israeli health maintenance organization Maccabi Healthcare Services, with local startups, Tamir said in a recent interview with Calcalist.
    Axell intends to focus on partnerships rather than investing in the startups, Tamir said.
