Profile
Marco Torri
Founder and Editor, EE&HL Network
EE&HL Network was founded by Marco Torri, who spent 15 years at the contractor–client interface in erection engineering and heavy lift.
Before founding EE&HL Network, Marco spent 15 years in international sales and business development across the erection engineering and heavy lift sector — starting in international sales for the lifting and transport industry, moving through regional sales and branch leadership roles across multiple international markets, including leading a branch office through a major LNG infrastructure build, then into business development for engineering contractors, and finally into strategic sales leadership for erection engineering and heavy lift technology providers in the UK. That path crossed bridge launching, strand jacking, skidding, specialist lifting, and modular construction technology — always from the commercial side of the table.
Marco studied at the Università degli Studi di Milano (University of Milan) and works in English, Italian, Spanish and French.

Editorial role
Writing from the contractor–client interface.
Marco has spent 15 years at the contractor–client interface, where decision timing, sequencing risk, contract positioning and the consequences of engineering choices are worked out, often well beyond what the method statement records. EE&HL Network documents that layer.
Its pages are written in an observer’s voice: they record what published sources say about a project and label any interpretation as an editorial reading. Figures are attributed to their sources, and competing figures are disclosed.
The standards behind that work are set out in the editorial methodology. For more on the platform, see About EE&HL Network.
