Announcing the Forming of the New York Financial Python User Group

New York Financial Python User Group

December 3, 2009

After receiving a great response to our new Financial Python User Group in London, we’re pleased to announce that we’re also going to be launching an informal Financial Python User Group in New York City.

The use of Python, NumPy, and SciPy amongst quantitative analysts has grown steadily over the past several years.  Throughout the financial industry, Python tools have played a powerful role in cutting-edge trading and visualization systems. We’ve been working with a number of  New York-based quants, traders, and other financial professionals for some time now, so the city seems an appropriate location for our first US Financial Python User Group.

Beginning in December 2009, Enthought will organize a monthly or bi-monthly event where people can meet and discuss the use of Python in the financial sector. Topics will range from new tools and techniques to best practices.

If you’d like to be informed about the details of these events, please contact me: mharward@enthought.com or join us on the LinkedIn group.

We’re pleased to announce that Enthought has launched an informal Financial Python User Group in London.

Over the last several years, the Python/Numpy/Scipy toolset has  steadily grown in popularity among quants.  It now plays an important role in the trading and visualization systems throughout the financial industry.  A number of  London-based quants, traders, and other financial professionals have asked Enthought  to set up a  “Financial Python” user group.

Beginning in November 2009, Enthought will organize a monthly event where people can meet and discuss Python’s use in the financial sector (best practices, new technologies, etc.).
