Some quantitative private equity experts said that talent is the core factor that distances quantitative institutions from each other. The combination of "recruiting talents", "cultivating talents" and "retaining talents" constitutes the core competitiveness of a quantitative organization in terms of talents.
Big quantitative companies are entering colleges and universities in various forms. Recently, Lingjun Investment, a tens-billion-level quantitative private equity firm, released information on its official public account that it has established the "Friends of Tsinghua University Lingjun Growth Bursary" to focus on helping students who study hard and have financial difficulties. Outstanding students from six departments of Tsinghua University, including the Department of Computer Science, Department of Electronics, Department of Automation, and School of Interdisciplinary Information, received awards and funding.
It is worth noting that in order to achieve better competition results, Jiukun's competition data comes from data collected in real scenarios, in order to test the participating students' abilities to understand and use data, mine information and internal logic, and process data.
In order to discover high-quality quantitative seedlings at an earlier stage, similar to the enrollment model of summer camps for college graduate students, Quantitative Private Equity Investment held a quantitative winter camp.
The Quantitative Winter Camp lasts for two days and includes food, accommodation and travel expenses. It not only offers technical lectures, but also has quantitative classrooms and game sessions to help students explore and understand a more real quantitative world.
In addition, some quantitative private equity companies choose to cooperate with university quantitative investment associations. Well-known quantitative private equity companies such as Egret Asset Management, Mingshi Investment, Zhicheng Zhuoyuan, and Zhongyang Uranus have established official cooperative relationships with the Fudan University Quantitative Investment Association. These quantitative institutions will regularly provide quantitative lectures to students of the association to popularize quantitative knowledge and communicate with students. They communicate at close range. In addition, these institutions offer numerous internship and full-time opportunities.
