State of Innovation

Challenge: How do you convey the dynamics of innovative entrepreneurs in the Utrecht region in a visually appealing and interactive way? How do you make complex data and stories accessible while highlighting the strength of the network and the support businesses receive? The challenge was to find a balance between storytelling and providing an overview of the region’s impact on entrepreneurs.

Solution: We created a scrolly web page with interactive data elements that guide visitors through the story of the “State of Innovation.” Using visual storytelling, we illustrated the journey of entrepreneurs, from knowledge and funding to market access. The interactive elements allow visitors to explore and experience the impact of the Utrecht region on innovative entrepreneurs for themselves.

FIFA

From lots of data to a clear story

Challenge: To elevate soccer worldwide to an even higher level. To this end, FIFA investigated how soccer is structured in 200 countries. They collected more than 1,000,000 data points. Big question: how do you translate all that data into a clear and accessible story? And, not just that, but in only 200 reports!

The solution: We designed a uniquely flexible template for the report. This was applicable to all countries because we took into account the distribution of data and text. To make the process of filling out this template easier, we linked a CMS to it. At its peak, 75 people were participating at the same time!

CMU

Dashboard ‘Centrum Management Utrecht’

Challenge: CMU is in possession of valuable data. The question was: how can we turn this data into actionable insights that benefit its members? We quickly arrived at the idea of a custom dashboard. The dashboard needed to do more than visualize data—it had to serve as a platform for sharing insights, fostering collaboration, and enabling strategic decision-making based on real-time information.

Solution: To better serve its members, we enriched and visualized CMU’s valuable data. We developed a tailored online dashboard that combines and presents various data streams in an intuitive way. The dashboard provides an overview of key performance indicators, trends, and developments in the Utrecht region, with interactive elements allowing users to perform in-depth analyses. Thanks to clear visualizations and a user-friendly design, even users without a data background can quickly gain insights and make data-driven decisions.

Nielsen

Understanding major sporting events

Challenge: How do you get everyone to watch a game? To make sure that fans are on the edge of their seats with excitement? How do you stay relevant as a sport, and how do you keep growing? These are questions that Nielsen can answer with their data; so Jaaf helped to make this data available for interpretation.

Solution: For the world’s 20 largest tournaments, we designed a series of 20 reports with clear data visualizations. These make it easy to discover trends and gain valuable insights. In the right context, data provides meaning.
