Meet (part of) the Team

Ice cream eating S[&]T'ers in the parking lot on a sunny day back in 2019

S[&]T Corp - a colourful bunch

S[&]T grew from a handful of optimists into a professional organization with offices in 3 countries (the Netherlands, Norway and Italy), of more than 125 dedicated (scientific) coders, engineers, developers, organizers, and other enthusiastic ice-cream eaters.

Under the umbrella of the "corporation", our two major parts are the S[&]T Innovation centre and the S[&]T Experts Pool (we explain this further at S[&]T Corporation Explained). 
The people from these two happily mix and match daily, as they are all scientifically inclined, and see that we all want to make life on Earth better with the help of our data solutions. See here below some of our colleagues highlighted from both sides and from the "TAC-team", who would be happy to hear from you!
