Ohr Yisroel talmidim had the distinct privilege to hear from Mr. Shalom Fireman this past week in their FDU Intro to Entrepreneurship seminar. Mr. Fireman has over 23 years of experience in the financial services industry, and over the past two decades has been an active investor in the U.S. IPO and secondary offerings markets. He is a founder and managing partner of FireRock Capital where he serves as the firm’s chief investment officer, and is primarily responsible for strategy development and managing the firm’s structuring and trading teams.

The talmidim took advantage of the opportunity to ask questions from such an industry leader and interact with someone who has been so successful both with business and as a Jewish role model. The course continues to be the highlight for many of our upperclassmen who marvel at the accessibility and engaging manner with which such personalities make themselves available to Ohr Yisroel.
