Quantbot Featured in Carnegie Mellon Article!

On August 19th, Quantbot was featured in an article by Carnegie Mellon University. The spotlight was on our participation in a datathon event that happened in April and its impact on the students. At this event, our employees got the opportunity to collaborate with current CMU students.

The Carnegie Mellon article highlighted our team’s dedication and ingenuity throughout the event as well as highlighted our sister company, Codewilling. It was a whirlwind of brainstorming, coding, and strategizing, culminating in a presentation. The experience showcased our commitment to leveraging data for impactful solutions and our collaborative spirit.

Looking ahead, we’re incredibly excited about the prospect of continuing our partnership with Carnegie Mellon and working with their students. Their reputation for excellence and innovation aligns perfectly with our own values, and we’re eager to explore more opportunities in the future.

A huge thank you to Carnegie Mellon for the feature and for the opportunity to collaborate on this event. Quantbot can’t wait for future experiences and successes in the future!

Pizza and Ice Cream Social!

As August, and summer, slowly comes to a close our interns will inevitably depart for new academic years or adventures ahead. While most of our interns are still around, we threw a casual pizza and build-your-own-sundae night. It was great to see our interns, strangers to us and each other a mere three months ago, comfortably mingle with their teams and Quantbot employees. As interns complete their projects we hope they can take the experience and accomplishments from this summer into their future successful careers. 

A big thank you to all our amazing interns this year 👏

You can’t be in NYC without getting some NY style pizza!

Squash in the City!

It’s always a surprise to see the businesses that can fit in a NYC skyscraper. In a nondescript office building in the middle of a nondescript Midtown block with barely any signage, there happens to be a top-of-art squash facility 5 floors in the air. Who knew? Thankfully Quantbot did, and that’s where we had our latest intern outing. Interns faced company employees, and each other, to see who’s squashing was the best. Some went all out, while others ate and drank where squash happened to be playing. Either way it was fun!

Squash!

More squash!

Dumplings, Pizza, and Knishes…Oh My!

This week our summer interns had the opportunity to go on a walking history and food tour of Lower Manhattan. Starting at the African Burial Ground National Monument, we then walked through Foley Square to get to Chinatown, where we stopped for our first food stop, fried dumplings.

Crossing over Canal Street, we walked through Little Italy, and after a sit down pizza break, we continued the tour toward the Bowery and the Lower East Side, where we tasted knishes from a Jewish bakery that’s over 100 years old. In each neighborhood we learned about the lives of African, Irish, Chinese, Italian and Jewish immigrants in NYC, their trials and triumphs moving to a new home and how they in turn shaped the city and the country.

Finishing off our tour at a German beer garden, we hope the interns got a chance to see and appreciate some of the many iconic neighborhoods New York has to offer. At the very least they certainly got plenty to eat!

Quantbot Members Scale New Heights at a Rockin’ Outing!

Last month, a few team members from our London office participated in an enjoyable bouldering outing. Nuo, a DTL member, visited the London office to work and engage in valuable team bonding. The outing was not only fun but also helped strengthen team relationships. The team is enthusiastic about future opportunities to challenge themselves both mentally and physically!
