Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday said the world is aware of iPads and iPods but there is one more 'i' that needs to be known is 'iCreate'.

While addressing an event at the iCreate centre here, Netanyahu said, "I am delighted to be here. The world knows about iPads and iPods, there is one more 'i' that the world needs to know about, that is iCreate."

"Prime Minister Narendra Modi founded iCreate when he was the Chief Minister of Gujarat. He told me that he visited Israel and he saw fermentation of ideas turning into innovation and into companies, changing the world," Netanyahu added.

He added that Prime Minister Modi understood at once the transformative power of technology and young people, as these two are the future.

"Now, Prime Minister Modi is changing India by the force and vision of his leadership. He is revolutionizing India as one of the world's great power. He and I are both very young and both very optimistic, we are young in our thinking and optimistic about the future," Netanyahu asserted.

He further thanked Indian soldiers for sacrificing their lives during the liberation of Haifa, Israeli city, in World War I and said most of them were from Gujarat.

"Jai Hind! Jai Bharat! Jai Israel! Thank you Prime Minister Modi, thank you all," Netanyahu concluded.
