For over a decade, ROI Community has convened some of the most promising young Jews from around the world, providing a platform for them to challenge each other and develop visions for change. Through the annual summit and year-round opportunities for leadership and engagement, ROI has built an intentional community of more than 1,500 activists and innovators committed to making the world a better place through Jewish values.

Inspired by the Jewish tradition of 13 representing a coming-of-age year, the summit will draw on the theme of responsibility. Through opportunities for self-reflection, knowledge sharing and artistic inspiration, participants will be encouraged to explore  responsibilities as leaders.

“The impressive change agents who have been chosen to take part in this year’s ROI Summit have already proven their ability and readiness to step up and to lead, and we are energized by their limitless potential to generate positive impact,” said No’a Gorlin, associate executive director for ROI Community.
