PRESENTATIONS OFFERED

Autonomous Vehicle Talks – Mois has been involved in the Autonomous Vehicle industry since its infancy and has several engaging presentations that address what has been called “the most disruptive technology to hit humanity.”  Topics include:

Jewish Philosophy Talks – While science and technology are the mainstays of “the Start-Up Nation,” enabling great advances in the quality of life, it is the Jewish people’s endeavor to address the great questions of the human condition that is Israel’s greatest treasure.  What is man?  What is ethical?  Why evil?  Mois believes that the Jewish people’s mandate to be a light among the nations, encompasses both improving the human condition physically through science and technology as well as metaphysically through philosophy.

To this end, Mois is spearheading the “Bar Ilan International Jewish Philosophy Project” which provides half-day, full-day or week-long programs that can be configured of topics in Ethics, Aesthetics, Theodicy, Existentialism, Fundamental Philosophical Questions, Jewish Philosophical Beliefs, and more.
