DPDK Digital Agency Team Members

Pim van Helten is CEO and co-founder of DPDK digital agency. He simply couldn’t pass the opportunity to co-found the agency in 2004 to make brands a better version of themselves than that they occur in a 30-second commercial. As the agency’s CEO he has made it his mission to transform brands through exceptional digitalism.

Pim is ill-suited for prefab and ready-made and as an energetic strategist, he loves to keep his eyes on the horizon and fight the ordinary with passion and craft. 

If 15 years in the digital marketing industry have taught Michael anything, it’s that whatever dominates the conversation today can become irrelevant tomorrow. That’s why he is on a constant quest for creative ideas that not only innovate but also transform brands. As the agency's Chief Creative Director he gets to do just that, and works with clients such as Peugeot, Pernod Ricard, and Vrumona.
