We’ll have the rare opportunity to hear about numerous challenges and realities of the Israeli war situation following the atrocities of October 7th from the Consul General’s unique perspective. She’ll talk about topics from the remaining hostages in Gaza and the dangers of Hamas and other Iran-backed terrorist groups to what daily life is like in Israel and the battle of public opinion around the world – and more. What are the Israeli people’s viewpoints about a future Palestinian settlement?
Burke will facilitate this fireside chat, layering in his knowledge of the Middle East, far-reaching and phenomenal experience as a military general and roles as company CEO. We’ll also have a Q&A with the audience.
Combine all this with group camaraderie and a fabulous lunch at The Buckhead Club for an amazing event you don’t want to miss. We hope you’ll make a point to add this to your calendars!
