The U.S. Speaker Program

The U.S. Speaker Program is a nimble, rapid response public diplomacy tool that advances national interests by recruiting prominent American experts to interact in-person or virtually with foreign decision-makers and other professional interlocutors to explain and further key policy priorities that protect, strengthen, and benefit the United States.

Programs leverage American ingenuity, promote economic prosperity, counter transnational crime, foster alliances in emerging technologies, and position the United States as a leader and partner of choice in countering enemy propaganda and reprioritizing truth.

U.S. Speakers represent a broad range of fields and expertise and are leaders in their sectors and communities. The U.S. Speaker Program offers experts an opportunity to engage with new audiences, expand their networks, and exchange ideas with professionals across the globe.
