The Future of Finance

1594699042615.jpg

Robert is a self-proclaimed “math nerd” who believes that numbers can transform organizations and even lives. Robert is a former Algorithmic trader and IBM engineer, who believes that almost anything can be made better if we apply the scientific method to business opportunity identification and execution. This process, properly applied, is the key to organizations and people reaching their potential. Robert is also the author of the Math of Modernization series.  

In the Fireside Chat Robert and Sharada will explore how Robert’s early days shaped him into the leader and entrepreneur he is today and how, exactly, data and process can help us all achieve our full potential.
