No, it’s not a comic book superpower. It’s about strategic thinking and how businesses can keep one step ahead by looking beyond the horizon to prepare for what comes next.

Jay Abraham, founder of the Abraham Group consultancy and one of America’s leading business innovators, has helped thousands of business ventures see around corners (the name of one of his books), navigate uncertain times and come out on top. Now Abraham is visiting Sapir College as part of a solidarity visit to southern Israel.

On March 27th, entrepreneurs and members of Israel’s hi-tech community will gather at Sapir to hear him speak about business models for periods of economic uncertainty, the need for strategic planning and the importance of risk management.  Abraham’s choice of Sapir was no accident.  Israel’s largest regional college, Sapir is at the heart of the academic, business and innovation ecosystems in the Western Negev. And along with neighboring communities in the Gaza Envelope, Sapir suffered a tragic blow on October 7th, losing students, faculty members and alumni to the merciless Hamas terror attack.  Entrepreneurial initiative will be critical to rebuilding the Western Negev.  Visionaries like Jay Abraham will help our business community play its part. 

The lecture will take place at 12:00 noon on March 27th in the  Helmsley Auditorium, in Building #5 Helmsley Auditorium.

Tens of thousands of Israeli soldiers have seen combat in the Gaza Strip since last October, but not all of them leave the war behind when they come back home. Many suffer combat and operational stress, reactions that could lead to PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder) and even suicide. Now, cutting edge research by Dr. Leah Shelef, Dean of the School of Social Work at Sapir College, is seeking the most effective way to treat – and prevent – these dangerous outcomes.
While Israel considers how to revitalize the devastated communities of Hevel Tkuma / Gaza Envelope, Sapir Academic College has just taken the first step. Sapir, the academic nerve center of the entire Western Negev, will devote most of its NIS 200 million in government rehabilitation funding to scholarships, enabling more students from diverse backgrounds to study in the region. Its flagship initiative will be free tuition for all first-year students.
