About the Summit

Hosted by LinqAlpha and sponsored by LSEG, AQR Capital Management, AWS and Z Venture Capital, the AI for Finance Summit is a private gathering for senior finance professionals. The Tokyo edition asks one question: how do Japan’s institutions actually build an edge with AI?

Japan is where that question has the sharpest answer. Global capital has re-rated the country on governance reform, but most of what moves a Japanese stock is still disclosed in Japanese and never in English. That gap is either a permanent tax on foreign capital or the clearest place in the world for these tools to earn their keep. The afternoon looks at where the answer sits, on the buy-side desk, in sell-side research, and in the data layer underneath both. One fireside, three panels and two live demos, followed by a reception.

The series has run in Boston with J.P. Morgan, New York with OpenBB and Guidepoint, Seoul, London with Deutsche Bank, and San Francisco and Los Angeles with AWS, ahead of Hong Kong and Singapore in November. Held under the Chatham House Rule, with no recording and no press. Sessions are in English with live Japanese subtitles. Admission is by non-transferable invitation only. Approved guests receive a QR code by email before the event, which is needed to enter the building.
