Cultural Tip
In Italian corporate environments, especially in tech and start‑up sectors, the English word ‘team’ is widely used and often paired with Italian nouns (e.g., ‘riunioni del team’). For a more formal tone you could say ‘riunioni del gruppo di lavoro’. Remember that ‘riunione’ can sound quite formal; in casual settings people might also say ‘incontro del team’.
