On May 17-18, at The Trading Show Chicago, 1,000+ delegates from hedge funds, trading firms, prop shops, banks, brokers, trading venues, regulatory outfits and financial service providers will convene at picturesque Navy Pier.

With pre-arranged private meetings, multiple networking breaks and a speaker lineup featuring the foremost experts in their fields, The Trading Show Chicago is your one-stop shop for meeting new business partners, sharing industry knowledge and collaborating with your peers in the algorithmic trading community to meet the people who can really make a difference to your bottom line.It all started in 2010 with the launching of the first ever high-frequency trading conference in the United States. That pioneering event gave rise toThe Trading Show – the most established brand in the Americas electronic trading market.

Terrapinn was the first ever event organizer to recognize the merging of the quantitative investment and automated trading communities in the historic Chicago event in 2011. From these humble beginnings, this event has grown to serve as a platform for Wall Street legends like Blair Hull to share their knowledge and insights with the algorithmic trading community.Drawing a bigger crowd each year, the 9th annual Trading Show Chicago has expanded to incorporate innovation across exchange technology, big data in finance and derivatives. The 2016 show was headlined by big names from firms like Tower Research Capital, Citadel LLC and Ketchum Trading.What sets this particular event apart from any other trading gathering is that consistently over the past five years, the ratio of trading firms to service providers has been by far the best in the sector. If you want to do business with the CTO of an automated trading firm, the head of quantitative analysis of a leading bank, the head of a global exchange, the global head of derivatives from a leading fund manager or the Chief Data Officer of a financial institution, you cannot miss this event.
