Investment Intern, Quantum Light

Storonsky’s reasoning for founding QuantumLight is that the VCs that support startups are still old fashioned in their operations, or “stuck in the 20th century”, as the company states. QuantumLight points out that while data-driven quantitative investing is a major part of hedge funds returns, only a fraction of funds make use of data science.

Though generating plenty of excitement in the industry, QuantumLight is still in its infancy and has been operating largely in stealth mode with a small core team of quant traders, AI scientists, and engineers. That being said, its first publicised capital raise was for $200 million, strongly indicating that the fund is one to watch.
