The Council for the United States and Italy is a binational, non-profit,
non-political organization founded in 1983 by a group of influential personalities from both countries, including David Rockefeller
and Gianni Agnelli.

The Council aims at fostering closer ties between the United States
and Italy, and – in a broader perspective – between the United States
and Europe.

The focus of its membership and activities is economy and finance.
The American branch of the organization is currently chaired by David
W. Heleniak, Senior Advisor of Morgan Stanley.
His Italian counterpart is Sergio Marchionne, Chief Executive Officer of Fiat Group and Chairman of the Board and CEO of Chrysler Group LLC.
Samuel J. Palmisano, Chairman of IBM, and Marco Tronchetti Provera, Chairman and CEO of Pirelli, serve as honorary co-Chairmen.
