Roberto Badò lives in Milan, Italy. He has a degree in Communications (Film) and Economics from the University of California, San Diego. He started working in advertising in the US for Armando Testa NY. He then moved back to Italy where he worked for BGS following the Swatch account, covering many roles in the agency, Account Executive, Copywriter, Art Director and Producer. He was then called by Wieden & Kennedy/Amsterdam to lead and manage advertising in Italy, primarily for Nike, Coca Cola, Microsoft and Benelli Scooters.
