Maria Vittoria Calvi is a full Professor of Spanish Language and Translation at the Department of Contemporary Languages and Cultures, University of Milan. Her academic career centers on specialized language research with institutional leadership in national projects and founding roles in research centers. Her research spans four interconnected domains: lexicography (specialized vocabulary in Spanish-Italian contexts), tourism language (discourse genres, digital evolution, and cultural representation), Spanish language teaching (for specific purposes and Italian speakers), and migration linguistics (Italian-Spanish contact in migrant communities). Key methodologies include discourse analysis, pragmatic studies, and comparative lexicography, often applied to tourism communication across digital and traditional platforms. Recent publications (2014-2019) reveal consistent thematic focus on tourism discourse evolution, particularly examining genre blurring in digital contexts (e.g., tourism 2.0), cultural diversity in tourism communication, and pragmatic aspects of specialized translation. Her work demonstrates strong interdisciplinary collaboration, frequently co-editing volumes and leading Spanish-Italian comparative projects. Professor Calvi has directed significant research initiatives including Scientific Coordinator for the PRIN 2007 project 'Il linguaggio della comunicazione turistica spagnolo-italiano' and head of the Milan unit analyzing legal-commercial aspects of tourism language. As a founding member of CERLIS (Center for Research on Specialized Languages and Intercultural Communication), she has shaped institutional frameworks for specialized language studies. Her laboratory work centers on CERLIS research teams, coordinating national projects on tourism language and specialized communication. Current activities focus on digital tourism discourse analysis and migration linguistics, with ongoing exploration of social media's impact on tourism communication genres.

Roberta Facchinetti is a Full Professor of English Language and Linguistics at the University of Verona, specializing in corpus-based analysis of language in social and discursive contexts. Her research employs computerized corpora to examine synchronic and diachronic English, focusing on pragmatic negotiation of roles through linguistic structures. Her primary research domains include corpus linguistics, pragmatics, discourse analysis, and sociolinguistics, with concentrated investigation into media discourse, news texts, and social media language evolution. She bridges theoretical linguistics with practical applications in lexicography (notably journalistic dictionaries) and language education, examining how digital environments reshape linguistic identity and communication patterns in specialized domains like corporate settings and journalism. Analysis of her 2010-2017 publications reveals persistent exploration of language-technology intersections, particularly in news blogs, corporate websites, and social media platforms. Key thematic threads include the emergence of new English varieties (e.g., 'Twenglish'), the globalization-localization dynamics of English, and corpus-driven methodologies for analyzing diachronic shifts in media discourse. Her work consistently demonstrates how digital communication channels reconfigure traditional linguistic frameworks while maintaining pragmatic core functions.

Gina Poncini serves as Associate Professor in the Humanities and Social Sciences school at Zayed University (Abu Dhabi), where she maintains an active research agenda bridging linguistic theory and business applications. Her scholarly profile demonstrates sustained contributions to specialized discourse analysis with international recognition. Education: PhD in Business Communication, University of Birmingham (UK), 2002 (Thesis: Business Relationships and Roles in a Multicultural Group: An Investigation of Discourse at an Italian Company's Meetings of its International Distributors ) Her research centers on discursive practices and evaluative language in professional contexts, with concentrated expertise in intercultural business communication, financial discourse, and agro-food industry communication—particularly the wine sector. She examines how language constructs meaning in multicultural business meetings, CEO communications, promotional materials, and digital platforms, consistently connecting theoretical discourse analysis to practical business applications. This work reveals her signature approach of analyzing power dynamics and identity construction through linguistic choices in specialized genres. Analysis of her publication trajectory shows evolving focus from traditional business meetings (2002-2004) toward digital communication genres (podcasts, blogs, websites) and industry-specific contexts (wine, tourism, finance) after 2005. The wine industry emerges as a persistent thematic thread, with 4 publications explicitly addressing viticulture communication across different media and cultural contexts. Scientific Awards: Distinguished Publication on Business Communication Award (Association for Business Communication, 2005) for Discursive Strategies in Multicultural Business Meetings While no current students or grant projects are specified in available materials, her pedagogical contributions appear through publications integrating research into teaching methodology. Her collaborative work with scholars like Garzone, Gotti, and Hiris indicates participation in international research networks focused on business communication ethics and multimodality.
