When I started working in news media in the Netherlands way back in 2005, my title was “project manager.” I was responsible for driving everything except for the editorial parts of our newspaper. Later, I became a “product manager.” At that time, I think I was one of the very few with that title working on building digital products in a Dutch publishing house. Few people around me had any idea what I was really doing, similar to the well-known meme below.

For the past six years, we have been building and scaling native apps centrally at Schibsted News Media. We are currently building and maintaining no less than 22 native apps for 13 media brands serving nearly five million users per month. This has been quite a bold move. Previously, all brands in our large media house were developing apps independently. But there’s a reason why focusing on native apps is important and why we now do this centrally.
