The Boston Israel Innovation Group (BIIG)
Providing educational resources, community support, and cultural connectivity for Israeli founders and their families as they build their futures in the Boston ecosystem.
For Founders and Their Families
We provide the essential educational tools and community support needed for Israeli families to thrive in Boston. Our initiatives include:
- Educational Materials: Access to our comprehensive "Welcome to Boston" handbook and curated innovation calendars.
- Community Concierge: Support from dedicated volunteers to help families acclimate to the local area, schools, and community services.
- Integration Programming: Educational workshops and events designed to bridge cultural and professional gaps for relocating families.
For Ecosystem Partners
We partner with Boston-area universities, student organizations, and local corporations to promote and celebrate Israeli and Jewish culture. Through collaborative events and educational programming, we work to strengthen the Israeli-Jewish presence on campus, bolster connectivity between Bostonians and Israelis, and foster an inclusive environment that combats antisemitism.
BIIG is powered by collaboration. Let’s build what’s next – together
