Who we’re looking for
People who know Israel firsthand.
The speaker lived it, built it, or studies it. Some of the people we’d love to hear from:
Journalists who cover Israel from the ground.
Scholars and archaeologists who can take us into the history, and the digs.
Diplomats who have represented Israel, or worked closely with it.
Founders building companies, charities, and new ideas in Israel.
Families in the north and the south, and families of reservists.
People doing the work farmers, winemakers, rabbis, volunteers, and first responders.
What a talk looks like
45 minutes, then the audience’s questions.
The speaker talks for 45 minutes and then takes questions. Uri hosts every talk and keeps the questions moving. It’s all online, so nobody has to travel. Speaker somewhere else? We’ll find the Thursday that fits their clock.
