How the Vaccine Rollout Will Get Us Back to Work, and What We Can Learn and Do Now to Prevent a Future Global Crisis - with Israeli Entrepreneur Amir Eldad (Ep 73)

Israel is the leading country in rolling out the covid-19 vaccine to its people. The rest of the world, especially policymakers and strategists, are watching closely, hoping to learn from Israel's success and mistakes.

Will our careers and professional opportunities be back to normal once we all get vaccinated? I invited my friend Amir Eldad for a chat to provide us with an insight into what is happening in Israel.

About our guest, Amir Eldad:

Amir is a globally recognized Entrepreneurial Ecosystem Builder. Throughout the first part of his career, Amir led Global Go-to-Market for Israeli startups that aspired for global leadership while bridging the multi-national cultural gap. His extensive experience led to his role as Director of Global Partnerships of MassChallenge, co-founding MassChallenge Israel, playing a pivotal role in establishing the new MassChallenge Switzerland hub, and leading a high impact partnership between the City of Boston, MassChallenge Boston, and the entrepreneurial ecosystem in Lyon, France.
