Hosted by the Colorado-Israel Economic Partnership Institute, the nonprofit organization announced earlier this year to serve as the primary champion of Colorado’s bilateral economic relationship with Israel. The CO-IL Institute functions as the research, education, and public-benefit arm of the Colorado-Israel Chamber of Commerce.
The CO-IL Institute is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization and 509(a)(3) public charity. Donations are tax-deductible as allowed by law. Federal EIN: 41-4752106
This gathering will bring together business leaders, innovators, public officials, academics, and community partners committed to strengthening the economic relationship between Colorado and Israel.
Come connect with the people building new opportunities across business, research, investment, and innovation. More importantly, help us build the institution that will carry this partnership forward for years to come.
It’s been two and a half years since we founded CO-IL, and this night celebrates what we’ve built together with the wider community to ensure its sustainable future.
Space is limited.
Register today and be part of the next chapter of the Colorado-Israel partnership.
