"As a PhD in biotech, I didn’t know how to approach hedge funds at first. The database made it much easier to understand the landscape and find the right people. I connected with a few hedge fund founders on the list that shared my personal, education, and professional affinity, which led to multiple conversations and eventually a hedge fund job offer. I still use it today to network across the buy-side."
