CUFIS is proud to partner with AlphaNova to bring an exceptional opportunity in quantitative finance.

AlphaNova’s Competition 5 offers a $50,000 USD prize pool and is structured to replicate the precise workflow of a professional quantitative hedge fund. Participants work with obfuscated financial data to develop cross-sectional signal models that rank assets — combining market intuition with rigorous machine learning. Only genuinely uncorrelated, overfit-filtered signals contribute toward the prize, placing a premium on originality and methodological discipline over raw predictive power alone.

The top three entrants share the pool (60/25/15 split), with high-performing participants potentially invited into ongoing profit-sharing arrangements. Entrants may submit up to 10 times ahead of the 31 July 2026 deadline.

Beyond the prize, this is a rare chance to build a verifiable, competition-grade track record and demonstrate applied quant skills to prospective employers without deploying any capital.
