The TAMID Israel Investment Group is a comprehensive, three phased program that connects American business-minded students with the Israeli economic landscape. The initiative aligns the next generation of philanthropists, leaders and investors in Israel through education, hands-on investment experience, and meaningful professional opportunities.
TAMID will serve as the vehicle for aligning the personal and professional aspirations of these business-minded students with the collective interests of Israel and the Jewish people.
This program is currently being piloted at the University of Michigan and will expand to college campuses nationwide in the near future.
