Roberto Saviano is an Italian writer, journalist, and screenwriter, among the most courageous and internationally recognized voices in the field of investigative journalism and civic narrative. Born in Naples in 1979, he graduated in Philosophy from the University of Naples Federico II.

In 2006, he published Gomorra, an investigative book translated worldwide with which he denounces the criminal and business system of the Camorra. Since then, he has lived under police protection, paying with his own freedom the price of his investigative work.

Throughout his career, he has intertwined fiction, investigative journalism, and screenwriting, creating a unique language between investigation and storytelling. Among his most famous novels are: ZeroZeroZero (Feltrinelli, 2013), La paranza dei bambini, and Bacio feroce (Feltrinelli, 2016 and 2017). Among his latest works: Solo è il coraggio (Bompiani, 2022), Cuore puro (Giunti, 2022), Noi due ci apparteniamo (Fuoriscena, 2024), and L'amore mio non muore (Einaudi, 2025).

Mathew Knowles is an entrepreneur, talent manager, and university lecturer, internationally recognized for his role in shaping some of the most iconic careers in contemporary music. As the founder of Music World Entertainment, he managed the global success of Destiny’s Child and played a pivotal role in launching Beyoncé’s solo career, developing innovative strategies in artist branding and marketing.

Before entering the music industry, he built a strong corporate background at companies such as Xerox, where he developed expertise in sales and strategic management—skills he later applied to entertainment.

Today, he is a professor and international speaker, focusing on leadership, entrepreneurship, branding, and the music business, combining academic insight with real-world experience.
