[Original air date, February 6, 2024] Miguel Armaza sits down with David Magerman, Managing Partner and Co-Founder of Differential Ventures, an early-stage fund that invests in data-focused entrepreneurs building enterprise technology.
In a past life, he spent 22 years in leadership roles at Renaissance Technologies (RenTech), a legendary hedge fund with over $100 billion in AUM and probably the most successful fund in history.
David is also a contrarian thinker and a non-conformist, which made our conversation even more interesting.
We discuss:

  • How David and a small group of engineers helped introduce quantitative data science to trading and public capital markets investing
  • Why he is highly skeptical of the new wave of GenAI
  • A very convincing argument to introduce friction in online communication processes to restore balance and reduce its negative effects on society… and a lot more!
