American Judaism is in the midst of a paradigm shift, as Jewish leaders look for new ways, and build new institutions, to engage American Jews in Jewish life. Fresh ideas and approaches seem to proliferate weekly: according to a recent report, more than 600 Jewish ventures have been created in the last decade alone. Organizations like UpStart Bay Area, Joshua Venture Group, and Bikkurim, exist to nurture and support these efforts. Established organizations are opening up to new approaches to creating and delivering Jewish experiences that more people find relevant and meaningful to their lives.
While Jewish social innovation is thriving, Jewish leaders -- professionals, lay leaders, funders, and entrepreneurs alike -- are faced with a new set of important challenges to address, including:
- What relationships can be fostered between established organizations and emerging Jewish organizations, to their mutual benefit?
- How can the Jewish community attract the resources needed to provide a valuable "runway" to emerging organizations so they can meet increased demand, evaluate and apply learning, and scale impact without running out of money just as their ventures are demonstrating value and reach?
Join UpStart Bay Area for a special webinar exploring these questions about the future of innovation in Jewish life, featuring Toby Rubin, Sara Bamberger, and Barry Finestone.
