Zsofia Balatoni
Founder @Uniomedia Communications, an international award-winning agency in Central and South-Eastern Europe
Chief Strategy Officer @Rothman & Roman Group
After a decade on the client side in a multinational environment, Zsofia founded Uniomedia with her partner 13 years ago. Uniomedia now has offices in Budapest, Brussels, London and Ljubljana and proudly serves the biggest multinational clients in 16 countries in Central and South-Eastern Europe such as Airbus, Danone, Heineken, Mastercard, Microsoft, Sanofi and many others.
Uniomedia has received many of the highest international and local accolades: among others, the agency is a 5-time European Excellence award winner, has several IPRA and SABRE awards and shortlists, and has won dozens of Effies, including a Platinum Effie. Locally, Uniomedia has been recognized as Agency of the Year 7 times – every year since 2014.
In her professional work, Zsofia enjoys the enormous possibilities that today’s digital world offers, and believes in building on state-of-the-art data analysis in her purpose-driven creative work.
Placing that sentiment top of mind, and capitalizing on the strengths of Uniomedia, Zsofia and her team have recently launched Rothman & Roman, a global strategic communications agency offering data-driven creative communication support for overseas clients.
