PrimiDieci Society Fundraiser Gala Event,

About the event

PrimiDieci Society is the elite club of the most successful Italians in the USA, the United Kingdom, and other selected countries of the World.

An international community exclusively joined by unique individuals,

universally known as “Italian Excellences”.

Extraordinary individuals with outstanding experiences in the most diverse areas of expertise. The national and international promotion of their ongoing outstanding accomplishments is PrimiDieci Society’s mission, to the benefit of the global community and future generations.

After the widespread international success of the 2013 and 2014 editions of “PrimiDieci USA” (annual Gala Event and Book), which Italian Ambassador to the US Claudio Bisogniero described as “an exemplary way to acknowledge […] the entire community of countrymen, hailing from both the old and new emigrations, both those of Italian descent and those who see themselves as belonging to Italy in ideas and culture,” a third edition of PrimiDieci USA will be presented in November of this year and the 1^st edition of PrimiDieci-United Kingdom will be launched this same November in London.

Bill de Blasio, Mayor of New York, personally supports this initiative and proudly acknowledges its cultural values with his Introductory Message “By honoring ten extraordinary individuals of Italian origins or nationality every year, PrimiDieci Society is drawing attention to the indelible mark Italian Americans have left on every sector of our nation’s life […].

Pasquale Q. Terracciano, Ambassador of Italy in London, fully shares the importance of the initiative, honouring us with the position of Chairman of the Society’s International Selection Committee: “I find of great interest the initiative entitled “PrimiDieci”, to be replicated in the United Kingdom following the very successful US edition. In strongly encouraging the Society to continue with the uneasy task of securing the necessary financial and human resources required, I confirm that the Italian Embassy will supervise the selection procedure of the personalities to be chosen as the “Top Ten” [ … ]”.

"PrimiDieci" recipients are outstanding individuals with extraordinary professional and human qualities. Often little known to the general public, only occasionally the Society awards also celebrities: among the recent awardees are also: Oscar Award(s) Winner, Dante Ferretti; Formula 1 World Champion, Mario Andretti; New York State past First Lady, Matilda Cuomo; Actor and Producer, Sylvester Stallone; Scientist, Mauro Ferrari; Former New York City Police Officer, Frank Serpico; Wallgreens-Boots Alliance’s Chairman and CEO, Stefano Pessina and Ornella Barra; Author, Novelist and Lawyer, Simonetta Agnello Hornby; City Holdings’s CEO, Francesco Vanni d’Archirafi; Sculptor, Arturo Di Modica.

This coming November two major Gala Events and two elegant books to present, celebrate, and award the 2015 Recipients in the USA and in the U.K. The PrimiDieci Book is the valuable, elegant, full-color annual publication where the awardees’ life story is celebrated as a testimony of Italian Excellence in our time, dedicated to the young generations and the posterity.
