About G-Research and invitation to participate

"We are a leading quantitative research and technology company based in London. Day to day we use a variety of quantitative techniques to predict financial markets from large data sets worldwide. Mathematics, statistics, machine learning, natural language processing and deep learning is what our business is built on. Our culture is academic and highly intellectual.

We'd love for your Masters and PhD students from Mathematics, Statistics, Physics and Computer Science to join us!

Your students will be able to take part in an algorithmic trading game that will give them insight into the world of quantitative finance outside of the traditional company presentation. The event will be run by our Quantitative Researchers and Machine Learning Specialists, who will share their knowledge about the industry and how a mathematical skill set can be transferred into other areas outside of academia.

The game is great fun, yet informative and there is the opportunity to win prizes for every member of the winning team!"
