Two Digital Asset Investment Professionals Visited Marquette's AIM Program on Wednesday, January 26th
The AIM students had an opportunity to interact with two digital asset investment pioneers who brought the class up-to-date on the world of blockchain and cryptocurrencies. They have provided valuable insights and helped the AIM students understand their investment process and how they will manage portfolios of digital assets for institutional investors (e.g., pension funds, sovereign wealth firms, universities, and foundations).
Ben and
Ramon met throughout the day with a variety of Marquette faculty, students, and
staff (including a meeting with Sean Gissal, CIO of the University’s endowment
fund). An interesting and lively informal meeting was held with 25 students
and faculty during the afternoon. The Q&A session was a highlight of the day for many of those in attendance.
A
strong turnout of Finance faculty, as well as an hour-long visit with the Keyes
Dean of the College of Business Administration, Tim Hanley. The guests also
interacted with Dan Tranchita, Executive-in-Residence, as well as Joe Wall and
Bill Walker of the AIM program.
