BLOG INSIGHTS AND ANALYSIS

Just over 30 years after receiving his PhD in nuclear physics from The European Organization for Nuclear Research, commonly known as CERN, our CEO, Michael Botlo, had the pleasure of co-organizing and hosting the first CERN-alumni meeting for the New York region. Former and present CERN researchers met at the Quantbot office on April 28 for a night of reminiscences, scientific discussions, and a live video link to the CERN accelerator control center. The highlight of the evening were speeches given by the featured speaker, Axel Drees, the head of the physics department at SUNY Stony Brook, and by Michi himself. As a whole it was an auspicious start to expand the CERN alumni network with the goal to increase job opportunities for scientific researchers and be a platform to support fundamental research .

Our amazing President and CTO, Paul White, completed his first marathon, the Rock ‘n’ Roll New Orleans Marathon, on March 4! At Quantbot we like to celebrate not just professional accomplishments, but personal ones as well, and while we couldn’t be there in person, we were cheering for him like the rock star he is. Congrats Paul!

The Quantbot Hong Kong office enjoyed the numbing spiciness and lively conversation at the House of Sichuan during a company outing while Michi Botlo, CEO, was in Hong Kong.

Happy New Year from Quantbot Technologies! We round out 2017 with an End-of-Year Celebration with the New York office. The whole office went to Suite 36, and chatted over plates of food (and helped along by an open bar!)

As we end 2017 on a high-note, may we wish everyone an incredible and happy 2018!
