Duygu Holat

During my agency tenure spanning from 2010 to 2017, I had the privilege to be part of dynamic digital and creative teams. Over seven years, I immersed myself in the world of social media, creative strategy, and team management, continually seeking growth and improvement in every project.

The recognition we received, including prestigious accolades such as Cannes, Kristal Elma, and CLIO awards, was a testament to the collective efforts of our teams and their commitment to excellence.

In pursuit of broadening my horizons, I embraced a meaningful role as the Head of Marketing at Social Hackers Academy, an inspiring NGO based in Athens. This enriching one-year experience allowed me to contribute to their mission and witness the transformative power of collaboration and purpose.

Currently, I am humbled to serve as the COO of Multiplayer, a game-oriented company encompassing agency services, a game studio, and captivating content. Within this role, I strive to oversee various operational aspects, including recruitment, accounting, and legal matters, while continuously learning and growing.
