Innovation in local government

The art of diplomacy

Does your regional campaign end when the season does? The five senses of place work all year round: a landmark tells its story in its own voice, a visit comes back as a film, and the memory lasts through distinguished diplomatic keepsakes.

The art of diplomacy

Promoting a region well is not about spending funds. It is about investing in tools that work.— Marcin Jamro, PhD, DSc, Eng.
Creator of Odoardo™ · entrepreneur, author, scientist and programmer

Do you manage the image of a city, municipality or county? Is every złoty spent on promotion open to public scrutiny? Do leaflets end up in the bin, giveaways repeat themselves and billboards rarely deliver? Investors, ambassadors and tourists now expect measurable quality, in promotion too.

We built Odoardo™ for local government. It begins with proximity technology hidden in the material, which an investor remembers after a single gesture. Next comes elegant representation in the form of an exclusive diplomatic keepsake. Finally, tourists promote your attractions with their own recordings.

History brought to life

A solid oak form that finds its voice and converses, drawing on deep knowledge of your region.

An investor wants to get to know the municipality but has no time for long reports? A museum visitor is tired of audio guides yet wants to learn more? A tourist taken with the architecture wants the building's story but cannot make sense of the information plaque?

Odoardo Soul™ is a solid wood cube with a hidden microchip. It wakes when a phone comes close and converses in the language the guest uses, by text or by voice. It presents figures or tells local history — no app, no sign-up, no cables.

The end of giveaways

A keepsake from a visit to your region should be tangible proof of class and professionalism.

Standard gifts rarely serve a representative purpose and often end up in the bin. Shouldn't a keepsake from a visit keep reminding people of it for years, and build your prestige along the way?

Odoardo Alibi™ is an oak case engraved with your municipality's coat of arms, holding refined conversation cards with original illustrations. It stays on the desk of an investor, ambassador or minister for years and recalls your region long after the visit.

The local government edition can be personalized: the coat of arms engraved on top of the lid, a gilded emblem on the back of the cards and a welcome card carrying the mayor's own words. Questions and illustrations about your region are prepared separately, as an Odoardo Atelier™ commission priced individually.

Directing prestige

Do tourists film your region endlessly? Turn them into credible ambassadors.

Media advertising often consumes vast budgets. Meanwhile, every day tourists and residents shoot countless amateur videos in the market square, in the park or by the landmarks. Bring in a digital director who works for your region.

In especially photogenic spots we place Odoardo Lens™ markers. A tourist holds a smartphone to one, and a virtual director suggests what to film and how. The system automatically edits the shots into a video postcard. When the tourist shares it online, it promotes your region organically.

Presence · Odoardo Space™

The power of the person in office

A personal address stays with you whatever the term of office. It is your brand, not the office's.

Addresses such as vicepresident.cv, boardmember.cv, lobbyist.cv or name domains (e.g. katherine.cv, iammanuel.com) affirm your standing as a leader, expert and decision-maker.

Odoardo Space™ offers more than 600 domains for lease from our closed portfolio. You point your personal address to your own website or social profiles. It remains yours for the entire lease.

You lease a personal address privately, at your own expense and on the same terms as anyone else. We do not tie it to an order for the office, grant no discounts on that account and make neither conditional on the other.

A living art gallery

The office is a place of service, but home should be a space of complete rest and room to breathe.

Offices often decide on enormous budgets. When you come home, you deserve the luxury of being surrounded by beauty you do not have to pursue or spend time searching for.

With an Odoardo Art™ subscription we deliver an oak frame and, every quarter, a new signed and numbered work of art with a letter from the artist. The living room or home study is refreshed each quarter, while earlier works stay and grow into a family collection.

You buy the art subscription privately, at your own expense and on the same terms as anyone else. We do not tie it to an order for the office, grant no discounts on that account and make neither conditional on the other.

Concrete applications

Where to
place it

  1. The mayor's office

    An oak cube on the table between the armchairs

    A delegation from a twin city waits for coffee. Someone holds a phone to the wood and hears the city's history in their own language — German, Ukrainian or Italian.

    The conversation starts with the city, not the weather

  2. Wedding hall

    A microchip beneath the lectern top

    Guests wait a quarter of an hour before the ceremony. They bring a phone to the lectern and discover the story of a historic townhouse and its architect, forgetting their nerves.

    Waiting becomes a story about the city

  3. Regional museum

    A microchip by the display case

    A visitor asks “what exactly is this” and gets an answer in their own language. No guide, no audio guide to rent, no app.

    The exhibition speaks when no one is on duty

  4. Viewpoint on a trail

    A framing anchor by the railing

    A tourist stands on the marked spot, brings a phone to the plaque and records a shot. The video postcard assembles itself, ready to share and show to friends.

    Images of your municipality travel through your guests' feeds

  5. Visit from a twin city

    A case instead of a statuette

    The municipality's coat of arms on the lid, a dedication inside, question cards in Polish and in the visitors' language. The delegation unpacks it at the table, not in a hotel room.

    The gift stays in use, not in a cupboard

  6. Dinner with an investor

    One hundred cards in the middle of the table

    The first question arrives before the first course. The conversation moves beyond the presentation of investment sites before anyone opens a laptop.

    They will remember the evening, not ordinary slides

Exclusive diplomatic keepsake

Personalization
layer by layer

Serious diplomacy and investor relations leave no room for random gifts. Odoardo Alibi™ in the local government edition is a handmade solid oak case with one hundred cards of mass-dyed paper, gilded so you can feel it under your fingertip. Several of its elements can carry your region's emblem.

First impression

Engraving on the lid

The solid oak case is handmade by a Polish craftsman. On top of the lid we engrave your municipality's coat of arms, logo or emblem. The closure relies on neodymium magnets hidden beneath the veneer, so the lid shuts with a deep, satisfying click of wood on wood.

The weight of a dedication

Engraving under the lid

The smooth oak surface on the underside of the lid becomes the setting for an official message. We engrave thanks for investment cooperation, a quotation or a word from the mayor. The recipient sees it the moment the case is opened. It does not fade and stays for years to come.

A symbol of prestige

Gilded coat of arms

The back of each of the 100 cards bears the coat of arms or logo of your city or municipality. The raised gilding on black mass-dyed paper can be seen and felt under the fingertips. The same detail returns with every conversation the cards open. One hundred gleaming points of contact with your region.

Golden words

Welcome card

At the very top of the deck we place a dedicated card with text finished in gold foil. It can describe the charms of the region or carry an official foreword from the office or the mayor. It is the first thing the recipient sees on lifting the oak lid.

Optional extra

A digital soul

Beneath the oak we can hide a Odoardo Soul™ microchip. Bring a phone close and the object comes to life, opening a conversation about investment opportunities, attractions or the municipality's history — in the language the guest uses. The conversation needs no app and runs by text or by voice.

Ultra-premium

Unique illustrations

For occasions of the highest rank, such as the anniversary of a city's founding charter, Odoardo Atelier™ can design an entire deck from scratch. We turn landmarks, key investments and regional heritage into minimalist black-and-gold artwork. Pricing is individual.

Questions and answers

How does Odoardo™ support regional promotion?

Odoardo Soul™ lets landmarks and council chambers speak in their own voice, Odoardo Lens™ turns a tourist's visit into a film that promotes the region, and Odoardo Alibi™ becomes a distinguished diplomatic gift.

Does implementation require the office's technical staff?

No. Odoardo™ runs unattended and requires no special apps or integration with the office's systems.

Can the content change with the seasons?

Yes, at any time. We update the soul's knowledge to follow events, the season and communication priorities — you send the change to the Odoardo™ team through Odoardo ID™, and we make it for you free of charge.

Where do we start?

The simplest start is a conversation with the Odoardo™ concierge on this page. It will suggest tools matched to the scale and goals of your local government.

How does the local government edition of Odoardo Alibi™ differ from the standard one?

The core of the product stays the same. What changes is the finish: the coat of arms or city emblem engraved on top of the lid, a gilded emblem on the back of the cards, an engraved dedication under the lid and a dedicated welcome card. Through Odoardo Atelier™ we can also design questions and illustrations that draw on the region's history and character.

On which occasions does such a gift work well?

During delegation visits, twin city partnerships, anniversary celebrations and meetings with investors and the local community.

How is billing handled on the office's side?

You buy the object once, and the service that brings it to life is a monthly subscription for Odoardo Soul™ and Odoardo Lens™.

Does the soul remember visitors?

The soul remembers the name a visitor chooses to give and the thread of the conversation. The “Forget me” button below the conversation erases that name and whatever the soul remembered about them, at any time. The office is the controller of this data.
