EARL Conference

The Enterprise Applications of the R Language Conference (EARL) is a cross-sector tech conference focusing on the commercial use of the R programming language and this year it will be held in the iconic seafront hotel – The Grand Brighton, UK.

In an exciting expansion, EARL 2024 will introduce Python into the program! The convergence of Python’s machine learning and web development capabilities with R’s statistical expertise at EARL promises to provide an encompassing perspective on the field of data science.

Datacove, in partnership with Silicon Brighton (the hosts of the Brighton & Hove tech community), are delighted to be running EARL for the first time and look forward to welcoming you to Brighton on 3rd – 5th Sept 2024!
