RTL, the largest commercial broadcaster in a declining Dutch TV market, is making a transition from a 
traditional TV company to a consumer-focused media company. Daan will share how we are using data science, ML and AI to help our users find the right content for them, ranging from the 1M daily visitors on our news website to the over 2B yearly video plays we have, most of these on our rapidly growing video-on-demand platform Videoland.
