Dean Goldschmidt Joins Governor Scott on Trade Mission to Israel
Miller School Dean Pascal J. Goldschmidt, M.D., joined Florida Governor Rick Scott last month on a trade mission to Israel aimed at attracting Israeli companies to Florida and fostering stronger ties between the Sunshine State and the Jewish state.
For Dean Goldschmidt, who, together with the Miller School’s Joseph Rosenblatt and Michael Lewis, has visited Israel several times to forge collaborations with Israel’s newest medical school, the trade mission provided the chance to become better acquainted with the governor, and help him learn more about Israel and the opportunities beneficial to both Israel and Florida.
“The governor is interested in the impressive bio-tech and bio-med growth of Israel and wanted to benefit from the interaction with those of us who have an established relationship with Israel,” said Dean Goldschmidt, who is also Senior Vice President for Medical Affairs and CEO of UHealth. “There was also an impressive desire – genuine and sincere – to learn more about Israel and its people. He was notably interested and touched by what he saw.’’
