Whatever their areas of interest – from education to technology to Israel advocacy to social justice to the environment – ROI participants share a passion for realizing their dream of a better, more Jewishly fulfilled world. The ROI mission is to increase the impact of these world-changing individuals by fostering lasting friendships within a fertile environment of idealism, communication and collaboration.

A growing global community with participants and alumni from more than 30 countries, ROI identifies outstanding young Jewish innovators, ages 22 – 34, and targets them for personal and career development and support. Equally encouraging of both projects carried out within local Jewish communities and universal initiatives based on Jewish values, ROI channels young innovators' activism by introducing them to like-minded innovators and activists from around the world, and inspires them to reach new levels of achievement.
