  1. Most charities and nonprofits are sitting on more data than they know what to do with. Beneficiary surveys, intake forms, service records. The data exists. What's missing is the capacity and expertise to turn it into something useful.

    That's the gap we want to help close with our pro bono programme.

  21. More pharma teams are moving to open source.

    R, Python, and Shiny offer flexible, reproducible environments that scale. The challenge is making that shift in a way that meets regulatory expectations and works in practice.

    That’s where we help.

  22. We're announcing our first speaker for AI in Production 2026 🎉

    Neal Richardson, VP Engineering at Posit PBC, is coming to Newcastle on 4–5 June to talk about MCP, or not MCP — cutting through the jargon to give you practical guidance on when to use Model Context Protocol, when to skip it, and how to handle security and authentication properly.

  23. Good data science is rarely glamorous. It's rigorous problem-solving, delivered on time, with results that hold up in production.

    We've worked with WHO/Europe, Public Health Scotland, and Hertfordshire County Council — from automating vaccine monitoring to open-source migration to scalable analytics infrastructure.

  24. For organisations in the UK using or adopting @Posit working with a local partner can simplify procurement and delivery.

    As a certified UK partner, Jumping Rivers supports Posit licensing alongside setup guidance, training, and technical support.

    Posit licences and services are also available via G Cloud and DOS for public sector teams.

  25. Most Posit issues do not start with a visible failure.

    They build up through configuration choices, version drift, and infrastructure decisions that no longer fit how the platform is used.

    Over time, this leads to unstable deployments, timeouts, security concerns, and harder upgrades.

    At Jumping Rivers, our Posit Health Check reviews configuration, servers, versions, and security to surface risk early.

  26. Sure, it was built with regulated industries in mind. But the Litmusverse works anywhere open source tools are used seriously.

    From research teams to public sector organisations, it helps teams understand and reduce risk in their R package stack.

    Because validation is not just about rules. It is about responsibility, reproducibility, and results.
