Nasdaq’s Quandl, a leading provider of alternative data, today
announced the fourth annual Quandl Data Conference (QDC 2020) at
Convene’s 46th St. location in New York City on Thursday, January
23, 2020. Featured speakers include Kirk McKeown, head of
proprietary research at Point72; Matthew Rothman, Managing Director
at Goldman Sachs; Chris Meredith, Chief Investment Officer at
O’Shaughnessy Asset Management; and a keynote from Brian Koppelman,
executive producer of Showtime’s “Billions” and co-writer of
“Ocean’s Thirteen.”
Across seven hours of programming and three hours of networking,
the one-day event will see alt data and data science pioneers
converge on the key pain point facing the industry today: how to
identify profit-generating information among the glut of data that
now exists.
Sessions at QDC 2020 will explore:
- Current tools, technology and processes in use to speed and
scale data assessment
- The new wave of investment strategies that make better use of
non-market data
- The relationship between data-driven investing and the broader
trends driving capital markets
“The biggest opportunity for investors this decade is to find
signals buried in the enormous amount of data generated by the
digital economy,” said Tammer Kamel, CEO of Quandl. “Four years
ago, we launched the Quandl Data Conference to educate the industry
on the viability of alternative data, and it has become the single
most important event in the space. This year we’re excited to
reconvene around the key challenge on everyone’s mind: how to
manage the nearly inedible feast of data.”
Additional presenters and the full agenda will be announced in
the weeks leading up to the conference.
Registration details and early bird ticket pricing (available
through November 27, 2019) can be found here.
