Celebrating Client Success
Ben Freeman
Membership Director at Nike
In the role of Project Manager for Nike, Koen managed multiple workstreams and creative specialists in a very complex matrix environment.
This was not an easy project to tackle, but Koen implemented helpful tools and meetings and kept the project on track.
With his calm, detailed and good-humoured approach Koen is always a pleasure to work with, and I would recommend Koen to any organization seeking a skilled and experienced Project Manager.
Anatol Kuschpeta
CEO of NewLife University
For the last 4 years we have done several projects with Koen Oosterbroek. He always surprises us by giving more then we expected. His creativeness and professionalism are beyond expectations. He never missed a deadline. For us as a production company this is key because we work with major accounts. Our clients are Rabobank International, Ernst & Young, DSM and Ahold and others. They expect the best.
What I as entrepeneur especialy like is the fact that Koen always says ‘Yes, it is possible’. We never talked about working hours, only about end result and cutting edge solutions. Not only he is able to make it, he also understand the bigger abstract picure our customers tell us.
I would like to thank Koen for the last few years and love to work the coming years with him.

Within our international environment, Koen knew how to handle different cultural demographics and became a very important creative partner.
Koen has a unique way to look at things from a marketing and creative perspective. He remains calm and sober despite our fast-paced work environment, managing multiple projects simultaneously. He knows how to use data to drive results, spearheading projects that ultimately contributed to PC's enormous growth in the EU.
He is very hard-working, and his creativeness always exceeds what we expect. I will be looking forward to working with Koen again.
Django Weisz Blanchetta
Managing Director at Superheroes Agency
Koen is an absolute pleasure to work with. What distinguished him from others was his ability to think strategically and pragmatically.
He didn't only show his talent for design and animation. He managed a clear overview of what had to be done and handled matters on-point to meet the deadlines. Besides this, he had very a proactive approach.
Without a doubt, Koen is able to spot opportunities and provide adequate solutions to any creative challenge.

Founder & Designer
2012 - 2015
In 2012, I designed and developed Vida, a productivity app that introduced a unique, gamified approach to goal setting and to-do lists. Vida allowed users to earn points and level up as they worked on personal development, offering a clear and engaging overview of their life and achievements. One of the most rewarding aspects of this project was receiving heartfelt messages from users about how the app had positively impacted their lives.
Key Highlights:
-

-
App Store Rating: 4.7/5
After reaching thousands of active users, I chose to sell Vida to another company, ensuring its continued growth and development.

The initiative received recognition on Dutch national radio and in multiple newspapers.
