MONTAUK: DATA & AI ON THE EDGE

AUGUST 9-10, 2027

Agenda coming soon

An exclusive summit for senior investment, data, and AI leaders shaping the next decade of financial markets. Taking a different shape to our Discovery Day events, this experience will be designed to foster relationship-building.

Event Overview

Following a successful inaugural event in 2026, BattleFin Montauk returns to the Montauk Yacht Club, bringing together senior investment leaders, data strategists, AI practitioners and technology founders for two days of candid conversations about the evolving investment research landscape.

Our 2026 gathering featured leaders from Apollo Global Management, Cadian Capital, London Stock Exchange Group and Daloopa, alongside AI innovators including Anthropic, OpenAI and Perplexity. We're building on that momentum for 2027, with another exceptional line-up taking shape. Stay tuned as we unveil the agenda and speakers over the coming months.

What to Expect

Key themes for 2027 include:

  • How agentic AI is transforming investment research

  • Building the modern research and data stack

  • The role of alternative data in an AI-driven world

  • Which datasets continue to deliver differentiated insight

  • Using data to identify consensus and variant perception

  • The future of fundamental research and the analyst workflow

  • Human Intelligence: Expert Networks

Beyond the sessions, BattleFin Montauk creates space for meaningful dialogue, fresh perspectives and direct engagement with the decision-makers shaping the next generation of investment research.

Format

  • Immersive AI workshops for the investment research space (previously led by Anthropic and Perplexity)

  • Small-group, closed-door roundtables (12-15 participants max)

  • Curated one-on-one introductions with true strategic intent

  • Extended time outside formal programming, designed to deepen trust and dialogue

  • Fireside chats - by an actual bonfire

Just the right people, in the right place, with the right conversations.

Immersive AI Workshops

Hands-on, not hypothetical

  • Work directly with AI tools, data and research workflows rather than simply watching a product demonstration.

Built around real investment problems

  • Explore practical applications across research, alternative data, idea generation, due diligence, monitoring and analysis.

Technology + data in the same room

  • See how leading AI infrastructure, platforms and datasets can work together — and where they fit within your existing investment process.

Who Should Attend

Attendance is by application only.

This event is designed for:

  • Senior leaders at Hedge Funds and Asset Managers

  • CIOs, Portfolio Managers, Heads of Research, and CTOs

  • Founders and CEOs of leading data and AI firms

  • Select advisors, former operators, and trusted industry connectors

There are a limited number of sponsorship opportunities for data providers in this space.

Montauk Yacht Club

 

At the eastern edge of Long Island, Montauk offers rare distance from the noise - yet remains easily accessible from New York City. Surrounded by ocean, open sky, and quiet stretches of coastline, it’s a setting designed for clear thinking, candid conversation, and unhurried connection.
