Hola, I'm Simon Rampaer.

I am a communications and digital marketing expert. I master social media and Google advertising - with an emphasis on campaign strategy and demographics/platform targeting. I also command project management and content creation tools.Get in touch:

More on me:

I am driven by two major challenges for EU regulations which will specifically impact our "millennials" generation: (1) reducing GHG emissions and (2) give a legal framework to internet companies.... I also love nature and outdoor sports and funnier things than EU policy-making.

Things I'm proud of:

- In April 2020, Brussels needed masks to protect its population from the covid-19 pandemic. I took part to the Masks.Brussels initiative that aimed to produce locally hundreds of thousands of cloth masks. I cycled around the empty streets to bring and pick-up materials to the people sewing them. It was a treat to see that the mere goodwill of engaged citizens could lead to an efficient supply chain in order to serve the greater purpose of fighting the spread of the virus.

- Winning the "Stratégies Innovation in Media awards". POLITICO was awarded the best 'launch or relaunch' for our arrival in France with a focus on Playbook Paris and Paris Influence.

- Managing the #1 print publication on EU politics and policies is a daily challenge. From budgeting, to subscribers and suppliers relations, there is no time to rest and no room for mistakes in the coordination of POLITICO's weekly newspaper's production and delivery supply chain. One thing drives my daily actions: the customer experience.
