It has been a very active semester in Europe regarding R meetings. After two successful main events: satRday in Budapest, and EARL in London, now is the turn for eRum 2016, the first European R users meeting. More than 250 data scientists will meet in Poznan, Poland, from 12th to 14th of October, to discuss and present innovative uses of the statistical language R in different industries, academic world, and government.
A crucial part of an event like this is the support of sponsors for many reasons: In first place they make possible to keep registration fees low, so more people can attend; they also help to validate the meeting inside the R global community; they contribute to the sessions with innovative applications in real business environments; and they add more value to the conference by the direct interaction with the rest of the attendants on coffee breaks and social events, or directly on their exhibition stands.
As organizers of eRum 2016 we are very proud and grateful to have well known and innovative companies who believe in our contribution to the R community and will make eRum 2016 a great meeting of useRs. Let us introduce our current sponsors!
