Robert is the founder of EKI-Digital, a digital investment consulting firm, Killerspin (Table Tennis) & Quant16. He believe that numbers can transform organizations and even lives. As a former Chicago stock trader and IBM engineer, Robert learned that almost anything can be made better if we apply math to it. From winning at table tennis all the way to corporate decision making. Math gives us a repeatable, statistical advantage over our competitors, and yet many of us still rely on our guts.
