Episode description
In this episode I spoke to Michael Watson, founder of Chained Metrics (https://chainedmetrics.com, discord channel: https://discord.gg/pXs9bJpE) and former Managing Director in Equities Engineering at Citadel.
In our conversation, Michael and I talk about the engineering challenges faced by a major hedge fund trying to remain competitive with alternative data, before then going on to explore his new project which sees him moving company KPIs onto the blockchain.
Separately, I will be speaking at the HFM European Quant Summit on Wednesday 17th November alongside Rani Piputri discussing Acquiring and Combining Alternative Datasets - https://www.hfmeuquantsummit.com/agenda
