About

The Conferences

The New York Data Science & AI and The Government Data Science & AI Conference Presented by Lander Analytics, formerly the New York R Conference and The Government & Public Sector R Conference, bring together top data scientists, AI researchers, and industry leaders from the private and public sectors. While the name has changed to reflect our long-time commitment to the larger data science community, we continue to highlight the power of open-source tools like R, Python, SQL, and more. Join us in New York City and Washington D.C.—or virtually—to explore cutting-edge advancements, share insights, and connect with a global community shaping the future of data science and AI.

The Community

The backbone of the R language is its community of users, contributors and supporters. The open source ethos of this community propels the language forward with tens of thousands of add-on packages and a helpful, welcoming environment. All around the world, R users hold meetups where knowledge is shared and relationships are formed. This conference grew out of the New York Open Statistical Programming Meetup (also known as the New York R Meetup), the largest in the world, with over 15,000 members. Topics from the meetup include data science, visualization, machine learning, deep learning, and so much more. You can browse 15 years of presentations at nyhackr.org.
