What goes into a data story?

A whole lot of thought, experimentation, empathy, and craft.

Kontinentalist is open, multidisciplinary, and collaborative, because the best data stories need many hands.

Let’s partner up.

How we collaborate

Data is powerful, but crafting memorable stories is delicate work. Here’s what we do.

process

First, we listen. You come with data, ideas, and a purpose; we’ll help you figure out the best story for your cause.

What’s in it for you?

We know there are plenty of good storytellers out there—and that’s great! But our special sauce is our sensitivity to Asia’s data and cultural contexts.

We’re writers, marketers, researchers, journalists, UX designers, ethnographers, game developers, and code magicians. Asia is our home, and we care about telling its stories.

Make data the star
