DDD was founded by current CEO Jeremy Hockenstein, then a business consultant for McKinsey. While traveling in Cambodia he was struck by the mix of poverty and progress he saw in this country still recovering from the devastation of the Khmer Rouge regime. Though there were computer schools offering training to young people, there were no jobs for the students once they graduated. Recognizing the
opportunity to make a difference, Jeremy and a group of friends were motivated to figuring out what they could do. Seeing an opportunity in emulating India's business process outsourcing model in Southeast Asia, DDD began as one small office in Phnom Penh, with a project to digitize Harvard University’s student newspaper, The Crimson. Today, DDD has successfully delivered work to hundreds of international and local clients from three operations centers. From a small data entry operation in Cambodia, the company now offers a wide range of digital content services. DDD is the largest technology-related employer in Cambodia and Laos and recently won Kenya’s Vision 2030 Award for the Best BPO. DDD’s unique Impact Sourcing model has developed a growing network of young professionals and propelled hundreds of families out of poverty.
