About Our Speakers:
Dr. Yaron Brook
Yaron Brook is chairman of the board of the Ayn Rand Institute. In addition to podcasting and speaking globally, Dr. Brook is an author with his most recent book, “In Pursuit of Wealth: The Moral Case for Finance,” making the case that few industries are more vital to our prosperity – and more maligned – than the financial industry. Brook and coauthor Don Watkins explain why finance has faced so much criticism, and why, despite the conventional image of financiers as “greedy” and reckless, finance is a moral industry. Brook and Watkins also authored national best seller “Free Market Revolution: How Ayn Rand’s Ideas Can End Big Government” and “Equal Is Unfair: America’s Misguided Fight Against Income Inequality.”
Above and beyond his best-selling books, Dr. Brook is a contributing author to “Neoconservatism: An Obituary for an Idea,” “Winning the Unwinnable War: America’s Self-Crippled Response to Islamic Totalitarianism,” and “Big Tent: The Story of the Conservative Revolution — As Told by the Thinkers and Doers Who Made It Happen”. Brook was also a columnist at Forbes.com, and his articles have been featured in The Wall Street Journal, USA Today, Investor’s Business Daily and many other publications.
Brook was born and raised in Israel. He served as a first sergeant in Israeli military intelligence and earned a BSc in civil engineering from Technion-Israel Institute of Technology in Haifa, Israel. In 1987 he moved to the United States where he received his MBA and PhD in finance from the University of Texas at Austin; he became an American citizen in 2003. For seven years he was an award-winning finance professor at Santa Clara University, and in 1998 he cofounded BH Equity Research, a private equity and hedge fund manager, of which he is managing founder and director. Brook serves on the boards of the Ayn Rand Institute and on the board of the Clemson Institute for the Study of Capitalism. He is a member of the Association of Private Enterprise Education and the Mont Pelerin Society.

About Our Partner: Freedom Conference
The Freedom Conference is a unique event, promoting personal and economic liberties in the Israeli society. Organized by the Israel Freedom Movement, the Ayn Rand Center in Israel, and other partners, it brings together the key liberal speakers, researchers, journalists, entrepreneurs and politicians operating and promoting those ideas.
Israel faces complex challenges in the fields of security, economics and society. The common believe that the state can answer all of those challenges by applying more control through legislation and regulation of its citizens actions, raises deep concerns regarding the state of individual liberties and the fabric of life in our multicultural society.
A modern, liberal and vibrant society depends on its freedom of speech, of press, of thought and belief, of movement and association and the liberty from the arbitrary actions of governments. The role of government is to defend its citizens liberties, to ensure their freedom to live their lives and pursue their own happiness, without fear of violence or coercion by others, citizens or state. Freedom grants extensive economic and social prosperity. Nonetheless, above all, it is the moral ground that allows for different people with different values and different goals to live together in peace and justice.
