satRdays

Here are some of the things people have said about satRdays that make it all worthwhile!

• I love the R community! I want to help make it as awesome as possible, and that means getting as many people involved as we can. More people participating means more knowledge sharing and more community. I see these weekend, local, super low-cost conferences as a vital way of improving the accessibility of knowledge and growing the community.

  Founder

• Running the Hungarian R User Group was always such a good and rewarding experience, so it wasn’t a question at all if I’m willing to help with the baby steps of the project and kicking off the first satRday conference. It was quite a lot of work, but the almost 200 registrations from 19 countries and 25 awesome speakers providing 12+ hours of fun and educating experience in a good company totally worthed it!

  Main organizer of the Budapest 2016 event

• I had the privilege of being on the organizing committee for the 2nd satRday which took place in Cape Town. It was incredibly exciting for me to have the opportunity to meet with passionate R users and developers - both local and international - right on my doorstep. It was definitely one of my highlights for 2017!

• The R community is a place where everybody is welcomed. The tool we use unites us, and the diversity of our backgrounds is its power. Joining the satRday Berlin team has been a heartwarming experience!
