This report summarizes the recent activities and challenges faced by the Speakers Committee as of October 2013. It highlights the need for revitalizing focused discussions on operations and performance in high-energy physics, addressing the cultural gaps between large HEP institutions and smaller R&D units. Despite limited recent activity, proposals to submit specialized talks have been made, emphasizing the urgency to engage more participants. Upcoming conferences and workshops are listed, with a call for contributions on operations at 13 TeV and exploring relevant scientific topics.

Saverio D’Auria Report from the Speakers Committee Summary: Operations and performance too old Not enough effort towards dedicated talks Upgrade talks under a different SC
Since last ID week (October 2013) 1 poster at IEEE (Priscilla), October 2013 1 poster at TIPP (Cristiano), June 2014 Not much recent activity which is scientifically relevant. Not many people active on this front. Proposal to submit specialized talks on particular subjects clashed with 1) Lack of interest from institutes, 2) Cultural difference between “the big HEP” and “the poor R&D” S. D'Auria (U. of Glasgow) - SCT Institute Board
