High Ranking TAU Alumni Events
The Tel Aviv University Alumni Organization has established a long-standing tradition of hosting an annual gathering for alumni who have been appointed to senior leadership positions during the past calendar year. The event is hosted by Prof. Ariel Porat, President of Tel Aviv University, who welcomes the honorees to his office.
The Senior Appointments Forum showcases the strength and diversity of the University's alumni community. It reflects the interdisciplinary nature—one of Tel Aviv University's greatest strengths—of its graduates. It celebrates their achievements across a wide range of fields, including law, business, medicine, culture, public service, social activism, and many others.
The forum strengthens Prof. Ariel Porat's connection with the University's alumni community and provides a platform for new collaborations that benefit the entire alumni network.
In addition, in 2020, Sigalit Ben Hayoun, Head of the Alumni Organization, initiated the establishment of the Advisory Committee. The committee is composed of distinguished alumni from diverse professional backgrounds, representing all of Tel Aviv University's faculties. Its members generously contribute their time, expertise, and experience to help build a vibrant community that creates meaningful impact and changes the world.
If you have been appointed to a senior leadership position this year, we would be delighted to hear from you. Please contact us by email.
