22 November 2018

Machine-readable news platform provider RavenPack has granted access to its historical data to crowd researchers seeking alpha signals on CloudQuant’s online Python and JupyterLab-based tools. The initiative aims to support data scientists designing tools to improve financial modelling.

Armando Gonzalez, CEO of RavenPack, says, “We were impressed with how CloudQuant provides anyone with Python-coding skills the opportunity to mine our data sets for alpha signals and earn compensation for their contributions. We strongly support initiatives designed to give data scientists the tools that liberate ideas to improve financial modelling.”
