If you don’t know where your data comes from, how can you know what it means?
validityBase is an easy button for data credibility.
In their careers, Greg and Dan both saw the critical role that trust—or lack thereof—plays in the success of financial business. Establishing the credibility of a trading strategy or a risk model can be extraordinarily challenging.
After working together on an investment fund, they realized that modern technology offers a solution. From this validityBase was born.
After graduate school, Dan spent ten years working as an investor, including the last 4 with Clerkenwell Asset Management, a tech-forward systematic trading fund he founded and built to over $100M in AUM. Greg and Dan started working together in 2021 when Greg joined Clerkenwell as the fund’s CTO. Dan received his BA and MA in Economics from Northwestern University and an MBA from Wharton.
Greg started his career at Microsoft, focusing on critical operating system features in high-performance communication, distributed computing, web services, and network security. After a period working in the hedge fund space, Greg founded AlphaBetaWorks, a financial data & analytics firm that achieved over $30b in assets under influence on its platform. Greg received a BA in Math & Computer Science from Amherst College, summa cum laude.
