Who We Are

Gianluca Neri

Director, Writer, Managing & Creative Director

He was born in Milan in 1971. He worked with the satirical weekly “Cuore”. Together with illustrator Roberto Grassilli, he founded and ran the web portal Clarence, later sold to the multinational Spray of the Wallemberg group, then transferred to the Bertelsmann group, and finally to the Italian company Dada. He worked with various magazines and created Macchianera, a multi-author blog among the most visited in Italy. He was a screenwriter for Magnolia’s series “Camera Cafè.” He later led a creative lab for the company owned by Giorgio Gori to develop new formats. In May 2005, he made headlines as the blogger who, through a simple copy and paste of a PDF, revealed the redacted parts of the official document released by the United States following investigations into the murder of Italian agent Nicola Calipari. For Rizzoli, he published the novel “The Great Phone Directory of Earth and Neighboring Planets (Jupiter not included).” He developed and hosted several programs for Rai Radio2. In December 2020, he debuted as creator and author of “SanPa: Sins of the Savior,” the first Italian docuseries produced by Netflix, of which he is also a producer through his company Quarantadue. He won the “Nastro d’Argento” for documentaries. In 2024, also for Quarantadue, he made his directorial debut with the five-episode docuseries “The Yara Gambirasio Case: Beyond Reasonable Doubt,” of which he is also author and producer. According to data released by Netflix, it’s the second most-watched Italian title in the world that year.

Marco Tosi

General Manager

A pioneering figure in Italy’s internet industry, he’s an expert in marketing strategy, business development, and digital traffic acquisition with decades of hands-on experience. In 1995, he founded I.com, the first Italian company to offer comprehensive internet services beyond basic connectivity – a groundbreaking move at the time. After Icon Medialab AB acquired I.com in 1999, he remained at the helm for 11 years, transforming it into Milan’s premier digital agency and a benchmark for the industry. Under his leadership, I.com became a training ground for Italy’s top digital professionals, many of whom went on to shape the country’s online landscape. It was also during this period that “Clarence” was launched—one of Italy’s most iconic and influential web portals.

Who We Are Working With

We’ve set up a creative factory made up by the best and most talented writers, professionals and creative minds in Italy. They meet regularly in our offices and have this goal: to help us conceive and produce their dreams: ideas that no one had ever considered before, because they were too innovative, too brave or too irreverent.

And since we are different from all the others (and it’s not a figure of speech), we have inside us a real investigative unit made up by the best lawyers, forensic and computer experts, to help us verify the stories we tell and collect new and unpublished information on current events. Sometimes these information helped to solve criminal cases. It happened. More than once.
