What G&A Group does

G&A Group S.r.l. Società Benefit is an Italian multi-brand consulting holding headquartered in Lavis (Trento), Trentino-Alto Adige, founded in 2017 through the merger of three predecessor firms (Studio Gabrielli / Gabrielli & Partner, Laboratorio Commerciale, and Hotel Klinik). It delivers sector-specialized advisory services to mid-market and enterprise clients, hotels, tourism operators, and public administrations in Northern Italy (Trentino-Alto Adige plus Verona and Brescia) through four sub-brands: Gabrielli & Partner for market positioning and business development strategy, Hotel Klinik for hospitality consulting, Progetto Turismo for territorial and destination marketing, and Mark You for editorial and content publishing. Its core 'technology' is a proprietary consulting methodology — the 'Check Up' diagnostic framework combined with the 'Circolo Virtuoso' (Dream / Order / Action / Sharing) four-element model — applied consistently across all brands, supported by a 1,000 sqm shared headquarters and a 'Partnership Strategica' channel that onboards independent senior consultants to deliver client projects under G&A brands.

The business is a privately held professional services firm with no disclosed funding rounds, no institutional investors, and no published revenue. GTM is direct and sales-led: engagements originate via the corporate site, sub-brand sites, phone, email, and direct outreach to entrepreneurs and leadership teams in the Trento / Verona / Brescia corridor, with no marketplace, reseller, or programmatic channel. Revenue is generated primarily from project-based, quote-priced consulting contracts (professional services), supplemented by a smaller editorial/publishing stream from Mark You. The firm holds Società Benefit (Benefit Corporation) status, is pursuing B Corp certification, and operates under an FESR 2021-2027 co-financed sustainability program including a rooftop photovoltaic installation. Leadership comprises President Matteo Bonazza, CEO (Amministratore Delegato) Davide Gabrielli, and a named team of approximately 45 professionals including partners, senior consultants, analysts, and heads of HR, marketing, administration, and operations.

G&A Group is a privately held Italian consulting holding that delivers strategic, organizational, and tourism/hospitality consulting services through four specialized sub-brands: Gabrielli & Partner (market positioning and business development for companies), Hotel Klinik (hospitality consulting for hoteliers and tourism operators), Progetto Turismo (territorial tourism marketing for public administrations and private entities), and Mark You (editorial/publishing for the diffusion of business culture).

Product overview

G&A Group is a multi-brand consulting holding company (G&A Group Srl Società Benefit), not a single unified software product. Its offering is organized as a holding-plus-specialized-brands architecture: the parent G&A Group coordinates shared values, methodology, and the G&A Building headquarters in Lavis (Trento), while specialized sub-brands deliver sector-specific consulting services. Gabrielli & Partner handles strategic market positioning and business development consulting for companies; Hotel Klinik delivers the group's hospitality and hotel consulting services; Progetto Turismo provides destination marketing and territorial tourism development consulting for public and private bodies; and Mark You acts as the group's editorial/publishing arm to disseminate business culture. All sub-brands share the same consulting methodology, code of ethics, and physical headquarters, allowing cross-sector knowledge exchange across the group's practices.

Broad incumbents

• EY-Parthenon Italy: Strategy consulting arm of EY in Italy, providing corporate strategy, transactions and transformation advisory. Competes with G&A for mid-market Italian mandates, particularly around M&A support and market positioning, but with access to EY's full professional services stack.
• McKinsey & Company Italy: Global management consulting leader with a long-standing Milan office. Competes with G&A in strategy, organizational transformation and market positioning for Italian mid-market and enterprise clients, but as a broad incumbent offering far wider services and global reach.
• Bain & Company Italy: Global strategy consulting firm with a major Milan office serving large Italian and multinational enterprises. Overlaps directly with Gabrielli & Partner's market positioning and corporate strategy work, but at materially larger scale, broader geographic reach and serving different (typically larger) client segments.
• Roland Berger Italy: European-origin strategy consulting firm with a strong Italian presence (Milan/Rome). Comparable to G&A in strategy and market positioning work, with overlap on mid-market and tourism/transport clients, but operating at much larger scale and broader geographic footprint.
• Strategy& (PwC Italy): PwC's global strategy consulting business with substantial Italian operations, providing corporate strategy, M&A and organizational consulting. Directly comparable to G&A's strategy practice but embedded within a Big Four advisory platform with broader service portfolio.
• The Boston Consulting Group Italy: Global strategy consulting firm with a Milan office serving top Italian corporates and institutions. Provides corporate strategy, market positioning and organizational consulting that competes directly with G&A's Gabrielli & Partner offering at the higher end of the Italian market.
• KPMG Advisory Italy: KPMG's Italian advisory practice, including strategy, management consulting and tourism/hospitality sector advisory. Overlaps with G&A's enterprise consulting and (via sector teams) with Hotel Klinik and Progetto Turismo offerings, with much larger scale.

Direct peers

• Horwath HTL Italy: Global hotel, tourism and leisure consulting network with a strong Italian presence. The most direct competitor to G&A's Hotel Klinik sub-brand, advising hoteliers, tourism operators and public administrations on hospitality strategy, market positioning and tourism development — overlapping directly with Progetto Turismo.
• Prometeia: Bologna-based Italian consulting and economic research firm serving financial institutions, corporates and public entities with strategy, risk and market advisory. Comparable to G&A as a domestic Italian advisory firm combining consulting with proprietary research and methodologies.
• The European House – Ambrosetti: Italy's leading independent strategic consulting firm, headquartered in Milan with offices across Italy. Directly comparable to G&A as an Italian boutique consultancy providing strategy, market positioning and organizational advisory to mid-market and enterprise clients, albeit at substantially larger scale and broader geographic reach.
