A strengthened and renewed bond in the name of scientific research and innovation, evident in the work of young researchers. That is the connection between Italy and the United States, celebrated at the Italian Embassy during the annual ISSNAF event, the foundation that brings together thousands of Italian scientists, academics, and technologists active in laboratories, universities, and research and innovation centers in North America. 

The event, held on November 8, 2023, at the Embassy of Italy in Washington, under the High Patronage of the President of the Italian Republic, was opened by Ambassador Mariangela Zappia and a video message from Minister Orazio Schillaci, followed by a greeting from Vice President Diego Bettoni on behalf of Italy’s National Institute for Nuclear Physics (INFN).
