Bio
LP Gatti
In 2017, Istvan and I shared the NYF jury. He caught my attention because most of the Hungarian campaigns that I knew were created by White Rabbit. We became friends and he invited me to work together in some projects. I was pleased to see him work. Always in a good mood, he works hard, with great insights and leadership.
Jim Seath
I’ve had the pleasure to work with Istvan over the years. I’ve yet to meet a CCO that has the drive, ambition and creative firepower that he has. As a leader he knows exactly what’s right and has the ability to find gold in any idea. He’s scarily in-tune with every trend and his predictions for the future, Nostradamus would doff his hat to. Above and beyond all this he’s a born problem solver, strategic thinker and a charming amenable individual that makes work feel nothing like work. But the scariest thing is that very work has every single time picked up at the best awards shows around the globe.
