EARL (Effective Applications of the R Language) is a brand new conference and the first to focus on the growing commercial usage of R. More and more companies are recognizing the strategic value of R for their data analysis and benefitting from its ease of use, the vast and growing number of packages available and, of course, the fact that as an open source language it’s completely free.
