Welcome to another episode of Impacting Israel, where we hope to bring you – our English-speaking, Israel-engaged audience, a range of voices not regularly heard from in our circles. I am your host, JJ Sussman, and through my role as the International Director of Gesher, I am privileged to develop relationships with many of these important voices. Today, I'm excited and looking forward to speaking with our very special guest, Yitzik Crombie. Yitzik Crombie is a seasoned Haredi HiTech executive entrepreneur. He is also the recent author of an important Hebrew-language book “When the Haredim Will be the Majority” analyzing the growing dominant Haredi demographic in Israel. In addition to founding Bizmax Business hub, his other ventures include iSale, the Haredi Hi-Tech forum and Mego. Bizmax – an innovative business center for Haredi men in Jerusalem – is run in collaboration with the Kemach Foundation, the Jerusalem Development Authority, and the Achim Foundation. Bizmax serves as a community and business center that caters to the Haredi community. The hub’s goal is to cultivate and nurture self-employed individuals, business owners, and entrepreneurs, and help them bring their businesses to the next level of success and productivity. He is a past researcher for,the Haredi Institute for Public Affairs. The Machon specializes in strategic planning, development, implementation and promotion of data-based policies and research in everything related to Haredi society in Israel.
