Quantbot and Schonfeld Visit Duke University!
Last week, our Co-Founder, Michael Lisak, teamed up with Ryan Tolkin, CEO & CIO of Schonfeld—our valued investor—at Duke University for a dynamic discussion on hedge funds, technology, and career development.
The session delved into industry trends, essential internship skills, and even a few campus survival strategies, providing a wealth of valuable insights and takeaways for aspiring leaders. A special thank you to Jennifer Kaplan, Head of Campus Recruiting at Schonfeld, for expertly moderating, and to Professor Emma Rasiel for your invaluable support in planning this event!
NBCC Annual Women with Balls Bowling Event!
Last night, Quantbot’s New York office participated in the annual Women with Balls Bowling Fundraiser for the National Breast Cancer Coalition. They gathered at Lucky Strike Times Square and enjoyed free food, drinks, bowling, and prizes while raising money for a very important cause, breast cancer research.
The team had a fun and rewarding evening, raising a total of $3,600 for the charity! We are excited to participate again next year and continue to help further vital cancer research. Please click here to donate to the National Breast Cancer Coalition!

Darts & Drinks Evening at Flight Club in London!
Last night, the London office had loads of fun at Flight Club, an interactive darts bar, playing a variety of games against one another. While Tim talked big game, it was Joe who ended up as the overall winner of the evening! With each mini game, two people were paired together to compete against the others, showcasing everyone’s dart skills and aiming accuracy.
No London evening out is complete without some pizza and beer, which the team enjoyed as they played. Here’s to another fun summer event for the UK office!
Make Your Own Ice Cream Sundaes! The End of Summer Intern Farewell in New York
On Wednesday, the New York office had a farewell event for the summer interns, as the internships for 2025 wrap up throughout August. The interns celebrated the end of an exciting, insightful, and successful summer at Quantbot along with the rest of the team, reflecting on the past few months of learning and developing as professionals.
Everyone enjoyed delicious sandwiches from All’Antico Vinaio, as well as ice cream sundaes in the kitchen, complete with a wide variety of flavors and toppings to choose from. While we are sad for the interns to leave, we look forward to seeing many of them as future Quantbot employees who will help to grow and enhance the company!
