			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Announcing the 2nd Annual Kishor Conference:</p>
<p><strong>From Dream To Success: Tools to Build Your Business</strong><br />
This year’s Conference will take place on Monday, June 13, 2011, at the Ramada Hotel in Jerusalem from 8:30 am-5:30 pm.<br />
Expert speakers will talk (in English) about the key elements of financing, planning, marketing and promoting your business. This conference will provide a unique opportunity for female entrepreneurs in Israel to learn how to grow your business to the next level of success.<br />
The first Kishor Conference in 2010 focused on the legitimate use of social media, with halachic guidance from Rav Yitzchak Berkovits, Dean of the <a href="http://thejerusalemkollel.com/">Jerusalem Kollel</a>, as well as practical tips from a wide range of industry experts. This year, the Rabbi&#8217;s keynote speech will address the halachos affecting business dealings. Renowned international lecturer <a href="http://www.tziporahheller.com/">Rebbetzin Tziporah Heller</a> will also speak on balancing your career with your family life.</p>
<p>Lectures will include &#8220;How to Tell if your Idea is a Viable Business&#8221; and &#8220;What is a Business Plan and Who Needs One Anyway?&#8221;. The three workshop tracks are designed to help those who are getting started with turning an idea into a business, opening a &#8216;Tik&#8217;, building a website and promoting their products or services. For those at the next stage, sessions will focus on motivation to succeed, improving profitability and productivity, and balancing home and career. A third track will discuss advanced strategies for marketing, raising finance and  improving strategies and business models.</p>
<p>The cost of the full-day conference, including lectures, workshops, networking opportunities and an elegant dairy lunch, will be 120 NIS at the door or 100 NIS if you register online by June 9.<br />
