Dr. David Krause, AIM program director said, “It was a pleasure to host Ben and Brad on campus today. They did an excellent job presenting to the students in the AIM Class of 2017. They talked about the range of investments and decision-making process within a family office. The students asked many good questions and it was a timely visit. I know that their examples of different stock screening methods will likely be employed by our students.” Later in the day they interviewed five prospective intern candidates.
