A group of six smiling professionals posing together at a conference booth. They are standing in front of a backdrop that reads "The future of pharma is open source" with the Posit and RStudio logos. The group is dressed in business casual attire and wearing conference lanyards. The setting is an indoor event space with industrial ceilings and grey carpeting.
