4. DigitalRosh Events: Professional Community Tour in the North
DigitalRosh’s professional tour for the community was held on September 7, 2023, in northern Israel. DigitalRosh friends and community members joined the tour.
During the first part of the day, we learned about the founder and chairman of Babcom Centers, Imad Telhami, and his vision for the company. This vision consisted of creating dignified and respectful employment opportunities for underrepresented populations in Israel, enabling a jumpstart for a better future.
The second part of the day involved a traditional Druze-style lunch, and a meeting with Iris Teller, founder of Tzipor Hanefesh Association. Tzipor Hanefesh Association is an occupational organization that employs artists with special needs who are unable to work in the free market and within regular rehabilitation frameworks.
It was an inspiring day, in which we saw the good in Israeli society and the possibility of choosing a business model with economic value for entrepreneurs, customers, and human society in general. Above all, it was a quality time among the friends of the community which is always a pleasure.
