Notman House welcomes today at 6pm the first meetup for the new niche group traders & hackers, which aims to gather everyone who is interested in building financial applications, mainly for stock markets . As the event name suggests, this is mainly designed for business-oriented entrepreneurs, and programmers, but if you are a designer, or a student in finance interested in the web, or if you have an idea in mind, then you should find the group exciting.
The teams from bullbear, vuru, betabrokers, bluetrader should be there, as well as people from firms such as Morgan Stanley montreal. It’s interesting to see where this will go. Montreal has the interesting combination of having a huge number of talent (phds, post-docs) from its four universities, plus it has a strong banking industry (not as big compared to Toronto’s, but we still have our fair share), so we should see more trading applications in the future.
What: Traders & Hackers
When: Today 6pm
Where: Notman House, 51, Sherbrooke west
