As Israel confronts the growing threat of a nuclear-armed Iran, its resilience—rooted in unity and innovation—is being tested and strengthened in profound ways.

CO-IL stands in solidarity with Israel, mourning alongside those who have lost loved ones and whose communities have been affected.

CO-IL's in-country Israel-based team and network have been deeply affected by the events of the past week and ongoing situation. Community members are serving in reserve duty in the Israel Defense Forces, volunteering to help those in need, and have had to cancel business related travel between Colorado and Israel. Some business travelers from Colorado arrived in Israel just as the current situation began last Friday and are there now.

Our hopes and prayers are for peace, security, and continued strength in both community and enterprise.

In times such as these, we find inspiration in opportunities to deepen the ties that bind us: shared values, care for each other, and an abiding belief in the power of progress and innovation for the betterment of society, nature, and humanity.

CO-IL's mission has never been more relevant—and necessary.

Colorado-Israel commerce and business ties are poised for an exciting future—and your support is vital to unlocking their full potential. Together, we can build a dynamic Colorado-Israel innovation partnership that benefits all.

Join us today—become a member, sponsor, or supporter.
