Your Gateway to the Alternative Data Ecosystem

Now in its 8th year, the Eagle Alpha Alternative Data Conference managed by A-Team Group, is the premier content forum and networking event for investment firms, asset managers, VCs, private equity firms, pension funds and hedge funds. Going beyond simple discovery we connect the ecosystem’s most influential data buyers and vendors to not only find new datasets but to master the utilization of alternative data. Join us to learn actionable insights, new capabilities and best practices to deploy new sources of alpha.

The Alternative Data Conference is built on the balance of discovery and strategy. Our 1-on-1 meetings connect innovative dataset suppliers with qualified buyers, while our premier content program delivers the ‘how-to’ on practical applications and strategic infrastructure.

Join our event for a deep dive into the practical applications and alpha-driving strategies unique to alternative data. This is the essential event for discovering new datasets and the practical strategies to make them count.
