YEARLY COMMUNITY EVENTS:
Whether you want to revolutionize the consulting industry, create the next start-up unicorn, or become a marketing guru, spend the summer honing your skills as an intern at leading global companies.
If you’re an outstanding Jewish college student with an interest in business or tech, we encourage you to apply
Israel is a business and cultural hub like no other in the world. Living abroad for the summer will expand your perspective on business and so much more when you go back home. Each US and International Fellow is paired one-on-one with an Israeli Peer Fellow to see Israel through a local lens — not a tourist’s view.
A few evenings each week, you’ll engage with professionals and changemakers across business, government, social impact, tech, and Jewish identity to learn, grow, and adapt in an ever-changing world. You will also explore Israel as a full group during three weekend trips.
After your summer internship, the journey is just getting started. You will join a family of Global Excel Fellows to connect with for years to come for career advice and networking, activating business and social impact initiatives, and so much more.
