Wall Street to Wet Labs: The Shared DNA of Vertical AI. On the surface, finance and pharma couldn't look more different. One chases alpha in the markets; the other engineers complex drug delivery and stability. But under the hood, building Vertical AI for both domains reveals a striking shared DNA. Drawing from hands-on engineering experience in Applied AI at a top hedge fund and a cutting-edge pharma tech startup, this session explores the surprising architectural parallels between these two high-stakes industries.
