As executive producer for the business network CNBC, Jason Gewirtz has covered Israel and Israeli business – including working for the network from Northern Israel during the Second Lebanon War in 2006, and following Warren Buffett to the country when the billionaire investor bought the metalworking company ISCAR, his first foreign purchase.

Jason has also covered the attacks from Gaza on southern Israeli towns like Sderot and examined the economic impact. He produced Beyond the Barrel: The Race to Fuel the Future which was shot on five continents and was largely focused on several Israeli-born energy technologies.

He currently produces Power Lunch, which is broadcast live every day jointly from CNBC’s global headquarters and the New York Stock Exchange.
