President Fabio De Furia met with Shiva Loccisano, CEO of AlmaCube, the innovation hub of the Alma Mater Studiorum – Università di Bologna and Confindustria Emilia Area Centro.

The meeting focused on international initiatives planned for this fall to showcase Italian excellence in the United States, with a particular emphasis on supporting startups, advancing entrepreneurial education, and translating academic research into industrial applications.

These initiatives offer a valuable opportunity to strengthen Italy–U.S. relations through concrete projects in scientific cooperation, entrepreneurship, and technological innovation.
