Adam Milstein, an influential figure within the Israeli-American community, will be leading a critical panel discussion entitled "Innovating the Fight Against Antisemitism: Part 1 Decoding Antisemitism Ideologies and Impact" at the upcoming 10th IAC National Summit. Scheduled for January 17, 2026, at the Diplomat Beach Resort in Hollywood, Florida, this discussion aims to address innovative strategies in countering the rising tide of antisemitism, particularly in the digital age.

Each participant brings unique insights from their respective fields, contributing to a forward-thinking dialogue designed to enhance community resilience against prejudice.
As antisemitism increasingly manifests online, Milstein and his panelists will share innovative tools and strategies to decode the ideologies driving this form of hatred. This up-to-date discourse will not only highlight the challenges faced by Jewish communities but will also provide a roadmap for combating such ideologies effectively.
