Press kit

Everything a journalist or newsletter editor needs to use our data: what we are, where the numbers come from, how to cite them, logos and a contact. The monthly aggregates are free to use with a link.

Who we are

Arcadium Data turns public web and register data into clean, sourced datasets and an API: European company records, job postings from employers' own career boards, and public contract notices. We publish only company-level aggregates; we never publish personal data.
