Last Thursday, Michi, Paul, and Ashar went down to the Baruch campus to give an exclusive presentation to the Masters of Financial Engineering students. Along with talking about Quantbot and showcasing our intern program, the members of management enjoyed speaking one-on-one with the students after the presentation. There was lots of interest in Quantbot as a company, and we also look forward to speaking more in depth with the students in the coming weeks.
As part of the continued recruiting for our summer 2020 internships, Quantbot attended the MIT Master of Finance (MFin) Networking Night in Boston. We brought along once-interns, now full-time hires to the event to meet prospective intern candidates and speak about their own experiences as Quantbot interns.
As a bonus, one of our attendees is even a MFin alum! Many students we met were interested in our available internships offering the opportunity to work directly with quant researchers. It was a great night for us and we received a lot of interest and encouragement from the students we met.
Our summer 2020 intern recruiting has started in earnest, and we kicked it off with a presentation for the incoming CMU Master of Science in Computational Finance (MSCF) first-year students, in our own Quantbot-sponsored lecture room. Michi, our CEO, and Ashar, our CIO, gave a well-attended presentation introducing Quantbot, our intern program and an overview of what it takes to be a Quant. We were encouraged by the enthusiasm of the students and the informed and excellent questions they asked.
Paul White, President and CTO and Ashar Mahboob, CIO were in Manila to kick off an engagement with Phitopolis, a technology Research and Development firm based in the Philippines. Phitopolis will be working on a number of technology development, data and quantitative research projects for Quantbot.
Ashar, Quantbot's resident diving expert, took advantage of the trip to get some of the team on their first scuba diving experience which was truly amazing.
This past weekend, our global partners team at Quantbot flew in to meet at the one place that offers the best culture, food, and drinks, New Orleans.
Quantbot partners from New York, London and Hong Kong met in New Orleans for an annual business review. Paul White, the firm's President and CTO, walked the team through recent performance and longer term plans. The partners spent many hours discussing strategic plans for the coming years, as always no topic was off the table and plenty of great ideas came up.
An offsite meeting isn't complete without delicious meals and drinks!
