Curate, Schibsted’s approach to content recommendation

Curate empowers all Schibsted media houses to create the best possible content offering to each user, serving the right content to the right person in the right format, at the right place, and at the right moment while safeguarding the journalistic mission. Initially designed to manage Aftenposten’s front page in Norway, Curate is now the core recommender system of more than 50 news brands in the Schibsted and Polaris Media groups.

Schibsted is scaling the system to even more news outlets this fall, introducing, among other things, new collaborative filtering features. Christoph Schmitz, Product Manager of Curate and Jacob Welander, Data Scientist at Schibsted will tell us more about the recent developments and plans for their content recommendation approach, what’s good at it, its limitations and how his team works with multiple editorial teams to improve Schibsted’s user experience.

WHEN: October 18, 2023, from 2 pm to 3 pm CET
