adjective kor-poh-rah-TEE-voh Rare

Usage Note

Corporativo refers to the corporate world or to a corporation (cultura corporativa — corporate culture). In historical Italian usage it also relates to corporativismo, the Fascist-era economic model of corporatism, so the word carries that political baggage in historical texts. In modern business Italian it is a neutral loan-translation of 'corporate'. It agrees: corporativo, corporativa, corporativi, corporative.

Examples

"La riunione aveva un tono molto corporativo."
