About Nathan Vennekens

Hi, I am Nathan Vennekens and I live in Amsterdam, the Netherlands with my wife I Chu Chao, and our attention-craving cat: Poekie.

How I add value

I have passion for digital marketing and communication, and I am driven by creativity. I like to work on the (online) performance of brands and services, from marketing strategy to implementation. I create (visual) concepts, I work on and coordinate (web) projects, provide social selling trainings and do content management. I stand for quality, I like to be creative and I am interested in technological innovation. I am result-driven I want to learn and become better every day.

Work where I am Proud of

I am most proud of my work at agency Artbox, where I represented top creatives to deliver high-end artwork to advertising agencies. But there is more, such as:

  • my role as digital marketing manager at Sogeti and the development of a brand new website;
  • the social selling workshops I developed and have given
  • the concepts and designs I created for events and (new) brands, such as Chao Legal
  • the tech startup: Ignation, that I helped getting up and running
  • and Bleeeb, of course.
