From 2010 to today

A story of
bees and people.

Beeing was born from the legacy of a grandfather who was a beekeeper. Today, it is one of Italy's largest urban beekeeping networks. In between, a promise.

Timeline

Milestones of our journey.

2010

Grandfather Pietro's legacy

A small but special inheritance: a dozen beehives left to Roberto by his grandfather Pietro, a beekeeper. This is how Roberto - now CEO of Beeing - entered the world of bees, discovering their beauty as well as the challenges: large spaces, equipment, time, and energy.

2017

The meeting that created Beeing

In a startup accelerator, Roberto met Gabriele, a computer engineer and now co-founder. They combined their passion for beekeeping with technology: Beeing was born. It started with ioBee sensors (now under the brand antifurtoarnia) to remotely monitor bee health.

2019

The launch of B‑BOX

B‑BOX arrived, the first beehive designed for urban beekeeping. Through crowdfunding alone, it reached over 450 users in more than 40 countries worldwide: a true revolution for the concept of beekeeping.

Today

A growing community

Projects expanded: air quality bio-monitoring using bees, smart urban apiaries, educational activities, and a remote beehive adoption program. The community now includes hundreds of urban and professional beekeepers, united by love and deep respect for bees and nature.
