In practice, Leadel provides rising Jewish professionals & entrepreneurs with access to an expert network, connecting innovators across Europe and Israel while showcasing the unique expertise of Israel as a Start Up Nation. Through these channels, Leadel bridges a gap between:
• Aspiring European Jewish professionals and inspirational Jewish personalities of the 21st century.
• European start-ups and Israeli accelerators and mentors.
• European venture capitalists and Israeli start-ups.

Leadel’s flagship event, known as The FLY Conference, is a hub for Jewish professionals/entrepreneurs to explore new connections, resources, and professional endeavors. With an emphasis on Israeli innovation, FLY provides an opportunity for guests to gain practical skills, insights, and know-how from top industry experts, while showcasing initiatives of their own.

The 2015 FLY Conference, scheduled for February 4-5 in Budapest, will be a focal point for Technology Leaders, Social Entrepreneurs, Business Professionals, Jewish Innovators, Senior Executives, and Industry Experts from across the globe. In today’s world, abundant with information, the personal connections and networks are priceless to achieve professional success and common good. The FLY’s highly intense agenda includes plenary sessions by inspirational speakers; interactive practical tracks by experts and business angels; peer-to-peer sharing, exhibition space and pitch contest for early stage startups.

An additional added value of the event is due to the professional level of both the network it creates and content it provides. As FLY admits participants in an acceptance based fashion, it truly brings together talented and promising individuals/companies. This draw serves as an efficient tool to identify and reach out to promising Jewish professionals, who may otherwise remain unaffiliated with their Jewish communities, establish viable connections with them to nurture the new generation of conscious successful supporters of the Jewish causes worldwide, first of all in Europe and Israel.
