StartupQuants 2014 - at the UnRisk Headquarter in Linz, Austria
We offer a first intimate Friday-Saturday workout with original thinkers on numerical maths and knowledge-based programming. It shall become an annual gathering to help startup quants leverage their work.
What you'll learn
You will walk away with tangible model-method-technology triples enabling you doing the difficult quant work and add value to valuation and risk management systems.
Who is moderating?
We're bringing the heads of the UnRisk Academy and authors of A Workout in Computational Finance and selected team members experienced in complex mathematical problem solving and hybrid programming. Those who write here.
