Our February NYC Data Business Meetup was focused on the intersection of data and finance (both market and consumer finance). Quantopian, Plaid and ZestFinance presented.
We also had a great panel presenting the customer perspective on Big Data (hype vs. reality), from a financial institutions’ viewpoint, with the following speakers: Mike Simone (Global Head of CitiData Platform Engineering), Emile Werr (Head of Enterprise Data Architecture, NYSE EuroNext) and Raj Patil (up until recently Data innovation CTO at UBS, now an entrepreneur). Unfortunately, due to standard policy at some of those institutions, we can’t publicly post the video of the panel.
