Last night, Quantbot’s New York office participated in the annual Women with Balls Bowling Fundraiser for the National Breast Cancer Coalition.

Darts & Drinks Evening at Flight Club in London!
Last night, the London office had loads of fun at Flight Club, an interactive darts bar, playing a variety of games against one another. While Tim talked big game, it was Joe who ended up as the overall winner of the evening! With each mini game, two people were paired together to compete against the others, showcasing everyone’s dart skills and aiming accuracy.
No London evening out is complete without some pizza and beer, which the team enjoyed as they played. Here’s to another fun summer event for the UK office!
