In this study group, we will explore critical questions regarding the relationship between high-tech, employment, and upward economic mobility in Israel, as well as the role of higher education. To what extent does the high-tech sector provide a viable pathway for individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds? How do factors such as gender influence access to this industry? What are the main barriers to expanding academic training in STEM fields, and how can the government use incentives to drive greater participation?
This study group / discussion is open to all HUID holders. Registration is not necessary.
