About Mattia
I help private equity funds, corporates and financial institutions make confident strategic and investment decisions. I bring 5+ years of experience in top-tier strategy consulting, focusing on commercial due diligence, growth strategy and business planning, particularly across Financial Services, Insurance, Fintech and Technology.
Clients typically engage me to assess market attractiveness, validate growth assumptions, analyse competitive dynamics and translate insights into clear, decision-ready recommendations. I work end-to-end, from market and customer analysis to financial modeling, scenario analysis and investment committee support.
Alongside my consulting background, I bring investment banking exposure and hands-on venture-building experience, which allows me to combine strategic rigor with a strong execution mindset. I am comfortable operating in fast-paced, deal-driven environments and working directly with senior stakeholders on high-impact projects.
