Who We Are
Florence Daily News is an independent news outlet covering Florence and Tuscany with an international perspective.
Founded in 2011, the project was born with a clear mission: to provide reliable, timely, and engaging journalism that connects readers to the culture, history, and daily life of one of the world’s most remarkable cities. Our audience includes residents, visitors, and anyone around the globe with a passion for Florence.
We operate as a non-profit, free from political or commercial influence, committed to accessible and transparent reporting. Every day, our editorial team delivers news in English to help readers better understand both local dynamics and broader global issues through the unique lens of Florence.
Florence Daily News also looks ahead. We integrate artificial intelligence into our work to enhance storytelling and provide context, while ensuring that human editorial judgment remains at the heart of everything we publish.
