HILLEL INTERNATIONAL

OOI is a boutique innovation laboratory with expertise in rabbinic and spiritual leadership, Jewish learning, and community building. We launch, catalyze, and scale new projects to advance Jewish life. OOI envisions a world where every Jew sees themself as an heir, trustee, and agent of the Jewish covenant to build a better world... We are currently incubating two projects: The Center for Rabbinic Innovation and IYUN. In addition, we partner with a number of outside organizations to foster catalytic change within their work. Several projects incubated by OOI have successfully spun out, including Base, JLF, and Civic Spirit... Our team begins by talking to as many dreamers, schemers, thinkers and tinkerers as we can until we sense an idea emerging. Once we have the faintest outline of an idea, we build a prototype-what we call a Minimum Viable Project-that makes our idea a concrete reality. Then, with a bit of seed funding, we start the adventure of incubating these projects.
