Tech Track

During the Tech-Track we will be working for 'De Volkskrant'. A dutch newspaper which is seen as a quality newspaper. Circulation of approximately 250,000 (physical). Since 2004 they have an online website where they write interactive articles and make video reports. Within the Volkskrant, the Data lab is responsible for collecting, processing, and analyzing datasets. They help journalists write articles which use data. The datalab will be our direct client this year.
