IsraelCast Episode 201

Now nine months after the October 7 terrorist attacks, Israel’s economy has bounced back incredibly well, with some metrics showing the market is even better than before the war. Agreements like the Abraham Accords are still in place, and corporations are still investing in Israel. Host Steven Shalowitz sits down with Dr. Chalamish, a Professor of International Economic Law at NYU, to discuss the resiliency of the Israeli market, how corporations analyze risk in Israel, and how difficult times lead to creative solutions in the startup world.

Dr. Efraim Chalamish is a Professor of International Economic Law at NYU and the Founder and President of the Global Center for Economic Development and Security. He previously served as the International Association of Jewish Lawyers’ Permanent Representative to the United Nations. Dr. Chalamish was recently selected as the Rockefeller Foundation Bellagio Fellow. The New York Jewish Week named him one of the “36 under 36,” and the French government named him a Future Global Leader. His articles have been published in leading journals and magazines in the United States and Europe.
