In this episode I spoke to Adam Braff, formerly of McKinsey and Chief Data Acquisition Officer at Point 72. In our conversation Adam and I talked about some of the difficulties involved in extracting alpha from alternative data, including in how to set up your team most efficiently.
In other news, I have written a blogpost about Alternative Data Discovery Mechanisms and specifically tracking the emergence of alternative data marketplaces. Please find it here: https://www.exabel.com/blog/the-alternative-data-discovery-mechanism
