We are delighted to announce that Eagle Alpha’s New York conference will now include an Expert Hub stream. This will serve as a breakout room where attendees can meet with experts and speakers from our various panel sessions in a more informal small group/roundtable format. This will provide an opportunity for a more technical conversation that should appeal to engineers and data scientists at buyer firms, as well as those in strategic roles.
As the UK prepares for an unpredictable and financially pivotal election on December 12th, investors are arming themselves with alternative data given that pollsters failed to call the last two UK elections and also got it wrong when it came to Brexit and Trump. Investors are turning to news event-driven feeds, social media, web traffic, online search, opinion polls, FX flow data, betting odds and many more datasets to work out how the election might play out. If you really want to get insight into the upcoming election please get in contact at enquiries@eaglealpha.com.
