The IAC National Summit 2021 will be held at the Diplomat Beach Resort in Hollywood, Florida, from Thursday, Dec. 9 through Saturday, Dec. 11. The summit is projected to bring together more than 3,000 global activists, entrepreneurs, influencers, and thought leaders for dialogue, panels, and nightlife.
With the US Jewish community facing growing antisemitism and Israel confronting unprecedented challenges, the summit will promote global Jewish unity around the theme "Israel. Together." That focus means gathering "together as a connected community, together as the Jewish people, and together in a shared unconditional love for Israel," said IAC co-founder and CEO Shoham Nicolet.
"We are here to support and strengthen our two homes – here and in Israel," said Nicolet. "Coming together as a united community to support Israel and the Jewish people in these challenging times is essential."
This year's summit will also institute special COVID precautions, including rapid COVID testing on-site and the provision of masks. In addition, all main sessions will also be broadcast on large outdoor LED screens to allow for an outdoor experience. Weather permitting, an Israeli Friday evening Shabbat dinner under the stars will bring American Jews and Israeli-Americans together for a timeless tradition.
The Adelson family owns the company that is the primary shareholder in Israel Hayom and has been a major IAC donor.
