The National Italian American Foundation (NIAF) Commemorative Book “From Liberty to Legacy: 250 Years of Italy–U.S. Relations. Across the Atlantic and Through the Generations” has been officially presented by Valerio De Molli, Lorenzo Tavazzi and Pio Parma during the 51st NIAF Anniversary Gala at Washington Hilton in Washington, D.C.
The volume explores 250 years of Italy–U.S. relations, tracing their historical roots, celebrating the enduring contributions of the Italian American community, highlighting today’s strategic partnership, and looking ahead to new opportunities for stronger transatlantic cooperation. Beyond economic and trade ties, Italy–U.S. relations have evolved over centuries through a continuous exchange of ideas, talent, culture, and entrepreneurship. From the nation's founding principles to science, education, business, politics, and the arts, Italians and Italian Americans have helped shape key institutions and dimensions of modern American society.
Looking at the present, the NIAF-TEHA Observatory turned its attention to the economic and investment dimensions of the partnership, highlighting its strategic importance. Today, the United States is Italy’s second-largest export market for goods and one of the leading destinations for the international expansion of Italian companies.
