Tysons, VA, Sept. 17, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
David Hirko, Co-Founder and Managing Partner B23 LLC, will speak at the Machine Learning and AI Conference “Discovery Day London”, September 26th & 27th, 2018 on the topic of operating enterprise data engineering and data science activities at scale in the Amazon Web Services cloud.
The Battlefin Discovery Day London event brings together alternative data, machine learning, and artificial intelligence (“AI”) experts from the worlds largest hedge funds, investment bankers, and venture capitalists.
“Almost all organizations are interested in harnessing the capabilities of artificial intelligence using data in order to gain a competitive advantage, and yet so few are currently able to produce meaningful results,” explains Hirko. “These organizations are still throttled by fundamental data engineering challenges that can be easily overcome given the right skills and capabilities. B23 helps customers engineer and transform data so they can invest and focus on their core competency of developing algorithms to compete and gain additional revenues not otherwise possible using legacy techniques. Getting the data engineering correct just means quants can now do their jobs effectively - it’s really a zero-sum game. We achieve a level of unparalled operational excellence getting the data right using our technology platform we call the B23 Data Platform, that has been operational for over four years and battle tested in many of the largest, security conscious enterprises on the globe.”
Before co-founding B23 with Brad Kolarov, Hirko and Kolarov worked at Amazon Web Services (“AWS”) and were instrumental in launching several of the most influential cloud computing initiatives to-date.
