One might think that the world of finance is no place for techies and tech leaders, but let’s be honest here – tech mavericks have a way of developing tech that can take almost any industry to the next level. And here, we have Chris Goddard, CTO & Partner at G-Research, who’ll dive deep into the comings and goings in the world of algorithmic trading, and how tech can help take it to the next level. From his beginnings, all the way to where he is now, Chris’ story is one we’re sure will captivate you through and through.

Key takeaways:

• How internal trade shows help spread work evenly, and ensure on-time completion

• That technology is hard, and ever changing - to learn to accept that and be happy to learn from your past mis-steps

• How diversity in companies can help spread knowledge and educate teams about what others are doing in a growing company
