PresenTense 
New york fellowship

It starts with an idea.

Conceived of in 2005 in New York as a magazine, PresenTense mobilizes our peers to discuss the Jewish people's most pressing problems in the 21st Century and to take action using innovative ventures. In 2010 we came back to our roots and established a fellowship where it all began: NYC.

The NYC PresenTense Fellowship is one of 11 Community Entrepreneur Partnership (CEP) programs across the globe established to better equip visionaries with the tools and resources they need to change the world, and mobilize the community behind their ventures - thus creating a sustainable eco-system of social change, and a culture of action.  

We invite you to join our mission, and bring along your vision to empower NYC's entrepreneurs, businesspeople, educators, innovators, marketing gurus, and passionate change makers to create the community you have always dreamed of.
