As the summer of 2019 quickly fades away, I’m reflecting with my fellow interns on our time at Trading Technologies. The past couple of months flew by, and although we started as strangers, we’re ending as teammates with shared experiences working at the Chicago headquarters of this global trading software company. 

Reflecting on the first half of the summer 2019 internship program at Trading Technologies, it’s hard to believe how quickly the weeks are moving by. In June, ten interns from schools across the country joined various departments at TT. Stepping off the elevator at 222 S. Riverside Plaza into the renowned company’s global headquarters, it would be understandable for a college student like me to feel somewhat intimidated.

As we’re about to turn the corner from June into July, I still find myself thinking about last month’s trip to Busan, South Korea. 

When FIA announced their first conference in Busan in over six years, I jumped at the opportunity to not only attend, but to maximize TT’s exposure by sponsoring the event. FIA Forum: Busan 2019 attracted a distinguished lineup of speakers, exhibitors and participants to discuss the Korean markets, as well as global and local issues affecting the derivatives markets. 

We recently announced an agreement with Graystone Asset Management Partners to provide colocation infrastructure hosting utilizing our Infrastructure-as-a-Service (Iaas) solution. In this instance, Graystone will be leveraging functionality of the TT platform in addition to TT infrastructure services, which makes the integration between the dedicated infrastructure and TT platform services seamless, provides an opportunity for service bundling, and gives Graystone one-throat-to-choke if there are issues. That’s fine with TT, because we know from experience that we can resolve problems much quicker when fewer third parties are involved. But there are lots of other benefits to getting your trading infrastructure services from TT.
