Who is Alessandro Araimo, mister Discovery. After Fazio he also convinced Amadeus

Milan, 18 April 2024 – “We are thrilled to welcome you to our team AmadeusTV champion, extraordinary artist and face among the most loved by the Italian public”. One of the phrases that in recent hours has risen to the top of the topics of conversation in the Bel Paese, linked to the new future that awaits the now former North Star of the latest editions of the Sanremo Festival, was pronounced by a manager which until now was little known to the large ‘main stream’ audience of our home. Alessandro AraimoManaging Director Warner Bros Discovery for Southern Europe since 2022, is the man who played a decisive role infour-year agreement signed by Amadeus precisely with Warner and which will see him debut on the Nine. The curriculum of Araimo, who in his Confindustria profile smiles at the camera leaning against a wall in a blue jacket and light shirt, is that of a leading international manager with important roles in Italian and French publishing groups behind him.

Graduated with honors from Bocconi in Milan and to theEssec Business School Of Paris, has collaborated with some of the most well-known international consultancy firms, such as Bain & Company, Roland Berger and Value Partners, always dealing with the sector dedicated to media and telecommunications. In her CV there are also managerial roles in Italian and international publishing groups such as Condé Nast, Fininvest and the Sole 24 Ore Group. He has entered the boundless galaxy of the American giant Warner Bros Discovery in 2014, initially covering the role of contact and operational head of Discovery for the southern European area, a segment of the continent which, in addition to our country, extends to the territory of the Iberian peninsula. The next step was the appointment as CEO CEO Of Discovery Italy followed, starting from June 2022, by that of general manager and managing director of all the Group’s activities Warner Bros Discovery in Southern Europe. He is also vice president of Confindustria Radio Televisionimember of the Auditel board of directors and of the American Chamber of Commerce in Italy, as well as of the Italian Film Academy.

Araimo’s main business card is the facts: the handshake with Amadeus is eloquent, but it is not the only one. The Warner manager was in fact the undisputed protagonist also last year in terms of sensational agreements reached with symbolic faces of Italian TV: he had always been the architect of Fabio Fazio’s passage from Rai3 to the Warner Bros Discovery group, an operation which had immediate repercussions on the fit of channel Nine. The agreement and its subsequent implications have yielded great appreciation for the work of Araimo which, thanks to the very important relaunch of these hours linked to the agreement with Amadeus, is aiming to radically change the face (this is precisely the case of say it) of Italian television.
