What is ROI Event?
It is an educational event dedicated to the world of Concept Art and Digital Illustration.
It’s open to everyone: students, beginners, professionals and enthusiasts of any level.
There are no special requirements to attend, and the event is organised as to allow everybody
to take part in all of the activities without skill limitations.
It is not a fair, you can’t buy your favourite gadget and, above all, you don’t have to queue for a long time.
ROI is a new experience for everyone.
It was born as a project by Genius, Academy of Visual Arts, pioneers in this field since 2012.
Currently based in Italy, ROI is a one of a kind annual event,
where you can attend classes taught by world-class professionals and take part in art-related activities.
Our aim at Genius Academy is to instill new life into the field of Concept Art and Digital Illustration in Italy.

The Venue
A coworking space? An exhibition booth? A theatre?
No, none of that. We have chosen a comfortable, spacious, intimate, but most importantly multi-purpose venue.
Just inside the Palace of Ancient Arts, born over 70 years ago at the World Expo held in Rome, lies Spazio Novecento, with its 1000 sqm of versatility and elegance.
Right at the heart of EUR, one of the most modern neighborhoods of the Capital, Spazio Novecento is well connected to the public transport network, rich in pubs and restaurants, close to the city centre.
A prestigious venue, where space, art and culture become one.
