On Wednesday, October 22, Philadelphia’s professional community gathered for the 22nd annual Israel Bonds Real Estate Power Lunch. Held at the historic Bellevue Hotel in downtown, the event honored Rich Gottlieb, President and COO of Keystone Development and Investment, both for his professional leadership and longtime support of Israel.
The luncheon, hosted by Israel Bonds Philadelphia, brought together a wide network of leaders from across business and real estate, all sharing a commitment to strengthening Israel through economic solidarity. The event generated over $45 million in Israel bond investments and indications, highlighting Philadelphia’s ongoing commitment to Israels future.
Keynote speaker Yali Rothenberg, Israel’s Accountant General, offered an inside look at Israel’s economic strength in the early stages of the peace deal.
“Israel’s economy is strong and growing, and investors around the world recognize that,” Rothberg said. “Every investment is an expression of confidence in Israel’s economy, its growth and its ability to continue leading forward—even in challenging times.”
Israel Bonds President & CEO Dani Naveh also addressed the crowd, thanking the community for their unwavering support.
“Israel bonds investors can take pride in playing an important part in Israel’s economic resilience,” Mr. Naveh stated. “Our work is not over. Israel is strong and we should be part of its strength.”
Among the other distinguished guests were Israel Bonds National Board of Directors members Andrew D. Rubin and Glenn Segal, who also serves as Chair for the Philadelphia Region.
The afternoon stood as a testament to the unity of a community deeply committed to building Israel’s future. As the event concluded, the message was clear: our dedication continues, and our collective investment today helps shape Israel’s tomorrow.
