About me


I am Belén Arregui, an internationally recognized Ecuadorian creative for my work in conceptualization.

My achievements have been highlighted in prestigious festivals such as Clio, One Show, Gerety Awards, Loeries, Epica, Cresta Awards, Dubai Lynx, Angel Awards, Caracol De Plata, Caribbean Advertising Federation, Cóndor De Oro, Echo Latam, Fiap, Fepi, Lia, Lumm, Mad Stars, Ojo De Iberoamérica, Phnix, among others.

My creative focus centers on purpose-driven endeavors, always seeking authenticity in both people and brands. As the founder of the "Circle of Creative Ecuador," I lead a movement of 150 creative women in the fight for equal opportunities in our industry, while embracing diversity and defending human rights.

I was selected for the exclusive Cannes Lions "See It Be It" program "El Dorado" Colombia Edition 2021, a recognition of female leaders in the creative industry. I have worked for Dubai, the USA, Puerto Rico, Argentina, the Dominican Republic, and Ecuador, adapting my knowledge to various markets.
