I help companies and institutions create real opportunities between Italy, the United States and Latin America — through strategic connections, international projects and market-entry execution.
Matteo Paolicchi works at the intersection of three markets that rarely move in sync — Italy, the United States and Latin America. His practice is built on a network developed in the field, not in conference rooms.
He partners with entrepreneurs, investors and institutions to convert international ambition into operational reality: the right introduction at the right time, projects that get funded, deals that actually close.
The work is direct. The relationships are real. The outcomes are measurable.
Market-entry strategy, jurisdiction selection and operational set-up. From positioning to first revenue on the ground across Italy, the United States and Latin America.
Direct introductions to decision-makers across institutions, capital, and industry — relationships that move files forward, not contact lists.
Design and coordination of cross-border initiatives, including EU-funded programs, public–private partnerships and bilateral cooperation.
Curated delegations, institutional events and high-level missions that translate visibility into signed agreements.
Confidential, board-level counsel for founders and executives navigating complex international decisions.
Built over fifteen years across three continents — institutional, entrepreneurial, financial. Not theory. Not LinkedIn.
Conversations open at the level where decisions are made: founders, principals, ministers, board members.
Italian rigor, American speed, Latin-American pragmatism. One advisor who operates natively in all three.
Led business development and market entry for DMBP Srl, including company incorporation and stakeholder engagement. Contributed to early-stage construction projects in partnership with LUXUS International Group.
Led the development of EU-funded and national projects (Interreg, Horizon, COSME, Erasmus+, Invitalia, SIMEST), overseeing proposal writing, consortium building, and institutional coordination. Enabled cross-border collaborations across innovation, sustainability, and cultural sectors.
Supported international cooperation between Zero Waste Italy and Love for Upcycling. Coordinated stakeholders, brands, and institutions for the development of Sustainable Fashion of the World (July 2026).
Contributed to the international expansion strategy of Delphina Hotels & Resorts, focusing on high-net-worth client targeting and positioning within the global yachting and luxury tourism ecosystem.
Supported U.S. market entry for five companies in the yachting sector (including Navigo mandates). Coordinated legal and corporate setup, structured commercial agreements, and activated strategic partnerships with institutional stakeholders.
Led expansion initiatives for three Italian footwear companies, managing partner sourcing, brand positioning, and business development. Secured strategic collaboration during Miami Swim Week, resulting in runway exposure and international media coverage.
Matteo Paolicchi holds a degree in Legal Studies from the University of Pisa and a Master’s degree in Corporate Law and Public Management.
