Neudata has hired Ian Webster as senior vice president.
Based in London, Webster will be responsible for building relationships with the firm’s buy-side investment management clients and alternative data providers seeking to monetise data.
Webster said: “I am delighted to join the incredible team at Neudata. Neudata have a fascinating position at the epicentre of the explosion in the number of funds using independently-produced research and data.”
“In particular I’m excited about Neudata’s opportunity to evolve the fragmented network of alternative data providers and investors into a well-structured marketplace, saving time and effort for all involved. Having run a data provider in this space for several years, I’m also keen to explore all the different ways we can help this side of the market.”
Rado Lipuš, founder and CEO of Neudata, added: “We are thrilled to have Ian Webster join our growing bench of alt data experts as Neudata continues on its substantial growth trajectory. Webster understands first-hand how the proper use of new and interesting captured data can be smartly leveraged to generate alpha.”
