Levente Kovacs

Levente is the Chief Creative Officer of White Rabbit Budapest, a creative agency he co-founded 16 years ago. His work has been recognized at Cannes Lions, D&AD, Clio, LIA, Epica, NYF, Eurobest, Cresta, AdStars. He also won several Effies (including the first ever Platina Effie in Hungary for long-term effectiveness), and his "Nice try" campaign is the first Hungarian work that made it to the cover of Luerzer's Archive. Besides having been on the judging panel of awards shows (Cannes Lions, One Show Young Ones, NYF, BrandFilm Festival), Levente is a lecturer at the Budapest University of Technology and Economics. His passion and love for the creative industry is the driving force behind his blog on advertising history, called Advertising History (Reklamtortenet), a popular platform of education for those who are interested in the world of marketing and advertising. He also translates and publishes influential marketing/advertising books into Hungarian to educate the next generation of creative hopefuls. He lives in Budapest with his son Daniel, daughter Sophie, and wife Adrienn – they are his greatest pride and inspiration.
