The Aviram Foundation Co-Chairwomen Gili Aviram and Noa Aviram announced the location 2023 Aviram Awards final stage, saying Morocco had been chosen. The announcement took place during the Clinton Foundation’s CGI Entrepreneurship Greenhouse event, which brought together hundreds of entrepreneurs from around the world.
“We are happy to officially announce: Next year, the Aviram Awards will have its final event in Morocco! The Aviram Awards competition was born out of the desire and understanding that the combination of business and doing good should and must go together. We see it as a bridge of peace between countries and regions, in the Middle east. This is the essence of our family foundation.”
The Clinton Global Initiative event, which coincided with the 77th Session of the United Nations Assembly in New York, was hosted by former US President Bill Clinton, former US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and their daughter Chelsea Clinton. It brought together international leaders and entrepreneurs to discuss and promote solutions to the challenges around the world among them the climate crisis and obstacles in the health sector.
During the announcement, Gili and Noa Aviram said that the Aviram Foundation works to promote people, projects, and solutions that have the power to change the reality of life in Israel and the Middle East for the better. “The Aviram Foundation works to promote creative and determined entrepreneurs, just like those sitting here today at the Clinton Global Initiative conference,” they said according to a statement. “We continue to change the world for the better and spread this important message.”
The Aviram Foundation was founded in 2021 by the businessman and entrepreneur Ziv Aviram and his four children: Gili, Nir, Noa, and Gal out of the mission and commitment of the family. The foundation activities reflect the family’s worldview and values – a combination of innovation, social involvement, connection to the land and nature of Israel, and providing opportunities to improve the daily reality of the citizens of Israel and the Middle East; these days, and in the future.
Aviram Awards is the first competition of its kind aimed at young and promising entrepreneurs in the Middle East who work to change the day-to-day reality and improve the lives of the world population through business, innovation, and technology.
In 2022, more than 600 start-ups from all over the Middle East, including Israel, Jordan, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Morocco, and Algeria, have entered the competition from a variety of fields such as education, health, environment, transportation, sanitation, and community.
Birthright Israel Excel was formed in 2011 in the wake of the success of the ongoing Birthright Israel program, which has brought hundreds of thousands of Jews for a 10-day tour of Israel. It is a business fellowship that begins with a summer internship in Israel and continues in the years after as a community focused on professional development and personal growth.
“Birthright Israel Excel was created to develop the next generation of Jewish business leaders. The vision of this program is multi-dimensional: to deepen the ties of participants to the State of Israel so they emerge as future Jewish leaders who want to preserve the identity, heritage, and welfare of the Jewish community; to encourage the next generation of international Jewish business leaders to strengthen the future of global corporate policy towards the State of Israel; and to foster the development of a think tank of innovative ideas with collaboration between international and Israeli companies.” the organization says on its Facebook page
