Communicate more effectively

Few industries are as dependent on the continuous development of IT solutions as the entertainment and media industry. The need to communicate more effectively with users around the clock across various platforms requires close ties between content production and IT. The demand for renewal is increasing, which is why Schibsted utilizes NetNordic for the operation of IT infrastructure and IT support, as well as to streamline and better integrate its IT solutions.
