Israel in Rwanda🇮🇱🇷🇼

𝐅𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐂𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐥-𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐭!

Yesterday, we brought Rwanda–Israel Creative Industries and Technology Week to a close with an exciting pitch session, where talented participants presented their innovative projects, competed for awards that would support them take a step closer to turning their ideas into reality.

Throughout the week, participants explored how technology, innovation and entrepreneurship can unlock the potential of Rwanda's creative industries.

Our sincere appreciation goes to our key partners: the Ministry of Youth and Arts (@RwandaYouthArts ), Rwanda ICT Chamber (@rwictchamber ) and the Institute of Legal Practice and Development (@LegalPracticeRW ). Their collaboration, commitment and contribution have been instrumental in bringing this initiative together and creating meaningful opportunities for Rwanda's creative community.

We are equally grateful to Shir Elkayam Luzzatto, Founder and CEO of Israel's Impact360, for bringing Israeli innovation expertise, practical insights and hands-on guidance to help participants strengthen their ideas and develop viable creative-tech ventures.

And above all, to every participant: thank you for your creativity, ambition and willingness to turn challenges into opportunities.

𝐂𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐌𝐞𝐞𝐭𝐬 𝐈𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧! 🇷🇼🤝🇮🇱

Today, we launched the #Rwanda–#Israel Creative Industries and Technology workshop, in partnership with @RwandaYouthArts , @RwandaICT and @LegalPracticeRW to help Rwanda’s creatives turn talent into sustainable income and thriving businesses.

🇮🇱 Israeli innovation expertise will be central to this initiative, with Shir Elkayam Luzzatto, Founder & CEO of Impact360, an Israeli innovation consultancy and technology accelerator, leading the training and sharing practical insights to help local creative-tech platforms strengthen their business models, reach new markets and attract investment.

We believe the knowledge and connections built during this period will help lay the foundation for lasting growth across Rwanda’s music, film, fashion, design and wider creative industries.

H.E. @AmbEinatWeiss was received by @BureraDistrict Mayor @MukamanaSoline during her official visit to the district.

Ambassador had several engagements and site visits including the wetland conservation at Rugezi, a visit to a resettlement project for disaster-affected families, and an inspiring interaction with students at Cyanika Technical Secondary School, encouraging them to pursue their ambitions with confidence and determination.

The visit highlighted the importance of sustainable development, local partnerships, and investing in people to build stronger, more resilient communities
