A-Team Group, the publisher of this newsletter, has acquired the Alternative Data Conference business from Eagle Alpha, the leading platform for alternative data solutions. This move significantly expands our event portfolio and broadens our footprint in the capital markets industry.
This move directly complements our TradingTech Insight brand, which focuses on trading technology and traditional market data. The acquisition of the Alternative Data Conference allows us to expand into the high-growth alternative data sector – a critical area for modern alpha generation. This expands our footprint on the buy-side, connecting us directly with the quants, hedge funds, and investment managers who rely on this essential intelligence.
For over eight years, Eagle Alpha established these conferences as the premier forum for the alternative data ecosystem. They have become the essential industry gathering for buy-side investors, data providers, and technologists to connect, discover new data sources, and shape the future of alpha generation – a tradition we are excited to continue and grow.
We are also pleased that Eagle Alpha will maintain strategic involvement through an ongoing partnership. They will participate on the advisory board, leveraging their specialized knowledge and relationships to guide agendas, current themes, and vendor participation.
A-Team Group will be hosting three Alternative Data Conferences in 2026:
- New York City: March 18, 2026 at @Ease 1345 Avenue of the Americas, New York – you can view the agenda here
- London: June, 2026 at Tower Hill, London

Emmett Kilduff, Founder and Chairman of Eagle Alpha says “From organizing our first alternative data conference over 8 years ago to building a brand that has become synonymous with alternative data, these events have been at the heart of our mission to connect the ecosystem. We are confident that A-Team Group’s expertise and reach will take these conferences to new heights, ensuring they continue to serve as the industry’s premier gathering for years to come.”
Michael Finnegan, Chief Executive Officer of Eagle Alpha commented “By partnering with A-Team Group, we’re ensuring these alternative data conferences continue to thrive under specialists who bring unparalleled operational expertise. Our continued involvement as strategic advisors maintains the deep alternative data knowledge that has made these events essential industry gatherings. This partnership allows Eagle Alpha to continue to concentrate our resources on connecting data buyers and vendors through our leading aggregation platform, serving as the exclusive distributor for curated datasets, and empowering data sharing with our Lakeshore solution.”
