maybe you should try a tax group, or a theology group, or a middle-eastern
politics group...

as others have said - florence would be the 'classic' suggestion. i'm not
at all sure it's the best one unless you are especially interested in
renaissance art, and even then it might be rather frustrating to have just
a day or two there.
verona, also mentioned, is a good alternative; another possibility,
especially if you are interested in italian cuisine, is bologna. ravenna
and particularly urbino are fabulous small cities more or less on your
way, but i suspect that practically speaking you'd need to be driving
rather than taking public transport to fit them into your tight schedule.
having said that, imho pompeii - which is near naples - is one of -the-
unmissable italian highlights. it's out of your way but you could very
easily see it with just a one-night trip out from rome.
