Public spending in the EU / EFTA: Finding the stories in the tender data

With the fresh EU tender data from the Dataharvest Hackaton we’ll generate the first story ideas, trace patterns, develop ideas, ask coders to help more, build teams, adjust stories to your target group and so forth. Background: All public spending in the EU and EFTA countries has to go through public tenders. The data will hold local as well as national and European stories. We get started right here.
