Let’s make business communication human again

I’m Matteo, founder of Glocal Word Lab.

While others chase trends, I focus on what actually works: real expertise built over 15+ years spanning the language industry and corporate world, backed by an International Business degree.

From fintech and legal to industrial manufacturing and SaaS—your content gets the expertise, cultural intelligence, and business insight that drives real results.
