The Israel Hayom Group will hold its first conference this June at the Jerusalem Archeological Park — Davidson Center, with former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley as the keynote speaker.
The forum will celebrate the strong bond between Washington and Jerusalem and will deal with a host of subjects, including the bilateral economic relations and trade, cultural ties and technological cooperation.
The forum will have some 500 participants and will be open to the press.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will take part in the event, as will Israel Hayom Publisher Dr. Miriam Adelson and Editor-in-Chief Boaz Bismuth. The speakers include U.S. Ambassador to Israel David Friedman and U.S. Special Representative for International Negotiations Jason D. Greenblatt.
Philanthropist and businessman Sylvan Adams, who has dedicated his life to strengthening Israel, will be among the speakers. Other prominent figures from Israel and abroad will attend as well.
During Ms. Haley's time as the U.S. permanent representative to the United Nations between 2017 and 2019, the United States stood proudly with its allies, repeatedly taking a strong and principled stand against the chronic anti-Israel bias in the organization.
In the U.N. Security Council, she proudly issued the first American veto in six years defending the United States' sovereign right to move its embassy to Jerusalem – Israel's true capital.
It will be Haley's first visit to Israel since leaving office.
Prior to being appointed ambassador, Haley was elected in 2010 as the first female and first minority governor of South Carolina. She was re-elected in 2014.
Although no longer holding public office, Ms. Haley is still an admired figure in the Republican Party, in the United States and abroad.
Israel Hayom is honored to have her as the keynote speaker in its first conference.
