Page 4 - Jewish Agency Companies 2017 Annual Report

Introduction

Dear Friends,
We in the Jewish Agency's Companies Bureau are pleased to offer you this annual compendium detailing
the wide range of activity of Jewish Agency subsidiary companies and IEF companies.
In this past year, our companies have been faced with many challenges, most of which we have
overcome and some we continue to deal with.
But of one thing I am certain. All the subsidiary companies, together with the leadership of the Jewish
Agency, UIA and UIA Canada, are working in synergy and with an inspiring degree of coordination.
Outside bodies turn to us asking how they can become involved and cooperate with us. Our subsidiary
companies have become a substantial socio-economic factor on the Israeli scene.
Thank you to all those involved in this activity in Israel and abroad.
We would be happy, of course, to hear your comments or answer any questions.

Yours,
Arieh Abir
Head of the Companies Bureau
