Spring into Quant Finance

What is Spring into Quant Finance?

Spring into Quant Finance is G-Research’s week-long residential programme, hosted around the Easter holidays every year.

It provides an introduction to the world of quantitative finance and G-Research, as well as a brilliant networking opportunity for anyone studying a technical or quantitative subject, such as Mathematics, Machine Learning, Physics, Statistics, Engineering or Computer Science.

Our 2025 edition takes place at a 5* luxury hotel in the South of France between 6 April to 11 April 2025. There, participants will take part in a wide range of workshops and insights seminars, hosted by our quant researchers and machine learning experts.

At the end of the week, attendees will have developed a clear idea of what it means to move into industry and specifically quantitative finance, learnt sought-after skills and built a valuable professional and academic network.

But it wouldn’t be a G-Research event without at least a bit of fun. Alongside plenty of learning opportunities, there will be lots of time for attendees to let their hair down too, with a wide range of social events and fun activities on offer.

Due to popular demand, we are now only accepting applications from current PhD students.
