The Italian Trade Agency (ITA) collaborated with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation to host the eighth edition of "Italy on the Move," a side event during the 43^rd annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference 2025 at INNOVIT - The Italian Innovation and Culture Hub. The event showcased investment opportunities in Italy in 2025 and included over 230 Italian and U.S. executives, Italian government leaders, members of the scientific and academic world, and investors.

As presented by Mauro Battocchi, Director General for the Promotion of Italy at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, following decades of investment by the Italian government in public health, which helped increase the average life expectancy of Italian citizens to 83.8 years and fueled the growth of life sciences businesses in Italy by providing more than € 2 billion on pharma R&D investments in 2023, Italy is now a global leader in life sciences.
