Mart Roumen

CEO Founder &Gagement

Buckle up. Because Mart Roumen is frustrated. Social interaction (offline) is declining, while passive social media (scrollen) use is increasing. That is why, with his agency &Gagement, he is proclaiming the offline revolution. A plea to ensure that people start meeting each other in a ‘new-fashioned’ (‘nieuwerwets’) way. That is why he helps companies in sports, culture, and festivals develop a strategy that ensures ‘full houses’. From the Rollatorloop to ADO Den Haag, and from the Zomercarnaval to the McLaren F1 Team. He helps the “Circulaire Campus” (a Jan Rotmans initiative) find the thinkers and doers of tomorrow. From the Oude Raadshuijs in Charlois, he is forging ahead in a contrarian manner. And with his previous CV in sports journalism, politics, corporates, and brand activations, there is no one who can combine storytelling, strategy, and get people moving quite like he can.

Additionally, he is a mentor and volunteer for the Kindertelefoon (Children’s Helpline), and as an ambassador for MKB Rotterdam-Rijnmond, he helps young entrepreneurs find their way through the entrepreneurial jungle.

I saw the Creative Talent Awards as a fun opportunity to connect with others and put myself out there more.
