As part of Dimona becoming a leader in the fields of advanced industry and the establishment of innovation and technology centers, the software development company Cambium, from Matrix, responded to the request of the Municipality of Dimona and the Or movement to expand its activities.



After years of activity and development in the town of Yeruham, Cambium is moving to new offices in the Dimari Center complex in the center of Dimona.

This is a historic event, as it is the first time that a high-tech company of the size of Matrix establishes offices south of Beer Sheva.

The transition is expected to take place this March.



Cambium was founded in 2010 by David and Shira Seltzer.

Today the company employs about 80 staff - all residents of the Negev (Yerucham, Beer Sheva, Dimona, Nativot, Ofakim, Arad, Ramat HaNegev and more).

By virtue of being located in the south of the country, the company brings a pioneering spirit to the region and enjoys a high-quality and diverse workforce consisting of leading software engineers, information systems engineers, designers, project managers and skilled developers made up of the strength of the local community.

Benny Biton, Mayor of Dimona:

"When I took office they laughed and said Dimona and their spirit will not go anywhere! Today they are developing cities. The Negev with a tremendous vision! Just let us work. The local authorities know how to conduct themselves and we do not want to be dependent forever on the national authority. I am happy to be Present at the laying of the cornerstone for the development center and offices of the Cambium company in Dimona! The development center is the first swallow of the innovation projects promoted in Dimona and a significant milestone in the growth of the city and the region! The center will employ about 100 development workers and train the next technological generation of the Negev.



Cambium, a subsidiary of Matrix, is a leading software company that is growing in the Negev and establishing its new home in Dimona.

The company is an expert in the development of end-to-end software systems, starting with the characterization phase, continuing with the software development and ending with testing, automation and support.

Under her leadership, large projects are developed in the business, governmental and private worlds.

I wish the company success and I see it as a major employer in Dimona.

I have no doubt that after her Kod and other similar companies will land here and together we will march the city forward towards the high-tech world."



Moti Gutman, CEO of Matrix:

"I met Dimona in the 80s when I met my future wife. I would come to the base to woo her. Today I am here and see how much the city has developed. I am excited at this position, it makes me happy to build an investment in Cambium here. The fruits are harvested quite quickly! In 2005 we started the initiative small enough to train 30 ultra-Orthodox women for the high-tech industry, today we stand at 1,000 ultra-Orthodox women in Modi'in Elit and Beit Shemesh. We are also growing Druze women as software testers in the Galilee. Matrix employs over 10,000 men and women and we will continue to grow and invest in employees - no matter where you live - Talents are found."



Roni Palmer, CEO and founder of the Or movement

: "As part of the 'Equal City' project, which was born in the Or movement and in partnership with Dimona Municipality, the Ministry of Housing, Interior, Settlement, Social Equality and Welfare, emphasis was placed on the independent economic growth of each city in the Negev and the Galilee. Dimona leads the Eastern Negev and the advanced industry cluster, The energy and the desert development. We salute the people of the Authority and the company Cambium from Matrix who jumped into the water to lead the high-tech pioneers in the heart of the city, this is a value proposition for the younger generation, who will be able to receive in one package: a community, a desirable job, discounted housing, entertainment and culture options and will have the opportunity to make history and influence the situation in Israel And for generations. Dimona is on its way to becoming a city with 300,000 inhabitants, and this connection is the type of connection that will bring unity to the nation in these stormy days."
