The Speakers Series brings experts from their respective fields, such as members of Knesset, diplomats, and entrepreneurs. Students are encouraged to ask questions freely to receive information from expert primary sources.

This program is run at the IDC Herzliya together with the Raphael Recanati International School and at Tel Aviv University."[5]
