HEAD OF GLOBAL PR AND ANALYST RELATIONS

Marco Torresi is the Head of Global PR & Analyst Relations at Loop AI Group, where he leads the planning, development, and execution of the company's public relations strategy. In this role, he is responsible for positioning Loop AI Group—recognized by IDC as one of the world's first independent AI companies—within the rapidly evolving cognitive computing and enterprise AI market, communicating the company's technological innovations to global audiences including media, industry analysts, investors, and enterprise clients.


With over a decade of experience in technology public relations and corporate communications, Marco has a proven track record of shaping brand narratives and strengthening industry presence across the technology sector.


Marco has served as a PR Director, managing comprehensive communications programs for major internet brands, including LinkedIn (the world's largest professional networking platform, which completed its landmark IPO on the New York Stock Exchange in May 2011 and was later acquired by Microsoft for $26.2 billion), Knewton (a pioneering AI-powered adaptive learning company that raised over $180 million in venture funding and was acquired by Wiley in 2019), Message Systems (the global leader in email infrastructure whose Momentum platform powered over 25% of the world's legitimate email for customers including Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, and Salesforce, later rebranded as SparkPost), PartnerUp, and TrustedID (an innovative identity protection company acquired by Equifax for approximately $30 million in 2013).


His expertise spans early-stage product launches, market analysis, media relations, corporate positioning, executive profiling, and social media strategy. In 2014, he was appointed Managing Director of Public Relations at Global IR Group, a global investor relations consultancy, where he headed the San Francisco operations and launched the firm's newly formed Public Relations Division with a focus on growing the firm's presence in the technology, biotech, and professional services industries.


He also played a key role as a Senior Account Executive, executing global PR initiatives for Compaq (one of the largest personal computer companies in the world before its $25 billion acquisition by HP in 2002) and Hewlett-Packard.


Beyond his PR career, Marco has been a successful entrepreneur, launching and selling a music venue in San Francisco and a restaurant in the Dominican Republic.


Marco is an active member of the San Francisco Bay Area Chapter of the Public Relations Society of America (PRSA) and is fluent in Spanish, Italian, and French, enabling him to support Loop AI Group's global communications across European, Latin American, and North American markets.


He holds a B.A. in Sociology from U.C. Irvine and an MBA from Santa Clara University, a private Jesuit university located in the heart of Silicon Valley known for its strong business program and close ties to the technology industry.
