Mauro Oddone

Fascinated by the world of communication, he embarked on this path and gained his first significant experience with a well-known multinational company. This opportunity allowed him to broaden his horizons and define his expectations for the future. Curiosity and a desire to grow led him to found Arkimedia Communication in 2009, a communication agency through which he began working with various companies. Looking around, he noticed that there were sectors lacking information portals made, as he says, and for this reason, he started working on several projects. Thanks to the collaboration of his team, the projects took shape, were put online, and began to gather approval. These are projects that span 360 degrees, ranging from the technology sector to agriculture, covering celiac disease and tourism, and extending to the beach sector. His great passion for the sea meanwhile led him to move from Piedmont to the Romagna Riviera, and perhaps for this reason, the project he ended up being most attached to is Mondo Balneare. mondobalneare.com was launched in 2010, and a couple of years later, he decided to satisfy the requests of more nostalgic readers who wanted to be able to browse it. Thus, the print magazine was born. Year after year, Mondo Balneare grew, its navigation was improved, and services increased. What had started as a website to inform beach operators became a true web portal, available in two languages and consulted both in Italy and abroad. The number of columns, readers, and advertisers increased, but for him, it was imperative to always continue improving. In 2015, he decided to organize the first edition of the Best Beach contest, a competition that rewards the most deserving beach establishments, which in 2025 reached its tenth edition.
