Young Jewish business leaders attend Excel Fellowship Summit
Last week, about 400 Excel Fellows from North America and around the world gathered in New York City for the Excelerate24 Summit. Excel is a lifelong global business fellowship, part of Birthright Israel, that identifies and brings together the next generation of Jewish business leaders. After completing a summer business or tech internship in Israel, the Excel community provides immersive opportunities in professional development, networking, personal growth, Israel engagement and Jewish identity.
After their internships, Excel Fellows have maximized their experiences by taking on positions at top-tier companies such as J.P. Morgan Chase, Bain & Company, and Google, developing strategic partnerships with Israeli companies, and starting their own companies, often hiring other fellows.
Moshe Lavi, whose brother-in-law, Omri Miran, is a hostage in Gaza, was among the speakers. A panel, Six Months of Strength & Survival, featured Excel Fellows who are IDF reservists and talked about their experiences.
