1776 🇺🇸. 1946 🇮🇹. Two defining moments, connected by ideas that crossed the Atlantic.

The Consulate General hosted “From Independence to Republic: 1776 and 1946 in Transatlantic Perspective,” marking the 250th anniversary of the American Declaration of Independence and the 80th anniversary of the Italian Republic.

From the influence of the American constitutional experience on republican Italy to the impact of Italian Enlightenment thinkers such as Gaetano Filangieri on America’s Founding Fathers, the discussion explored the deep intellectual and constitutional connections between our two countries.

Consul General Massimo Carnelos opened the symposium, followed by an introduction by Professor Amedeo Arena, Università degli Studi di Napoli Federico II, and conversation with California State Assemblymember Catherine Stefani, UC Berkeley Professor Amanda Tyler, and attorney Daniela Franchini, moderated by Mike Homer.

A reminder that the 🇮🇹🇺🇸 relationship is not only built on shared interests, but also on centuries of ideas, democratic values, and transatlantic exchange.

Deep tech as a new pillar of the transatlantic partnership. 🇪🇺🤝🇺🇸
The Consulate General of Italy, Innovit - Italian Innovation and Culture Hub, and the European Union in the United States Office in San Francisco hosted an EU-US Transatlantic Legislators’ Dialogue, bringing together members of the European Parliament and U.S. Congress to discuss the future of deep tech cooperation.

Europe’s world-class research, engineering talent and industrial capabilities, combined with America’s technological, entrepreneurial and investment strengths, offer a powerful foundation for deeper cooperation.

As frontier technologies reshape the global economy, stronger transatlantic collaboration can help make both Europe and the United States more competitive, more resilient and more secure.
Many thanks to Hon. Brando Benifei, Congressman Nathaniel Moran and Congressman Jim Costa and to panelists Steve Jacobs, Amy Larsen and David Evan Harris, for an insightful discussion at INNOVIT.

Connecting strengths. Building resilience. Advancing transatlantic innovation. 🇪🇺🇺🇸

Born in Italy more than four centuries ago, opera continues to transcend languages and generations, bringing together music, poetry, theater, and human emotion.

The Consulate General was delighted to open its doors to the San Francisco Opera & San Francisco Opera Guild, welcoming General Director Matthew Shilvock, members of the Board and leadership, staff, supporters, and donors for a special evening celebrating this extraordinary Italian cultural legacy.

A wonderful prelude to another great Italian story on the San Francisco stage: Giuseppe Verdi’s Simon Boccanegra, coming this September. 🇮🇹🎭

Special thanks to Romana D’Angelo Bracco and to the entire San Francisco Opera community.

Ci vediamo all’Opera!
