MatLogica Company News and Achievements

MatLogica is an award-winning provider of automatic adjoint differentiation technology for quantitative finance. Recent achievements include recognition as Chartis Research Category Leader in Automatic Differentiation (2025), ranking #13 in the Quantitative Analytics 50, and winning Asia Risk Technology Newcomer of the Year (2024). Independent benchmarks demonstrate MatLogica AADC is 40-64x faster than popular ML frameworks (JAX, PyTorch, TensorFlow) for quantitative finance workloads. The company has established partnerships with Intel for AVX512 optimization, Tachyum for unified CPU/GPU/TPU processing, and graduated from Accenture FinTech Innovation Lab. MatLogica's technology has been validated through academic research including Prof. Roland Olsson's neural network publications, Intel technical articles, and presentations at WBS Quantitative Finance Conferences. Real-world deployments show 15-20x speedups at Tier 2 banks, reducing overnight risk calculations from 8+ hours to 2 hours and intraday risk from 30+ minutes to minutes. The company actively seeks partnerships with specialized consultancies, software vendors, hardware manufacturers, and financial institutions to expand AAD adoption in derivatives pricing, risk management, and XVA calculations.

Workshop: Supercharge Your Quant Models - Unlock Python's Potential for Production

In this workshop, we provided a practical solution to address the trade-off faced by quants: the ability to prototype in Python quickly and the need for high-performing production models. We demonstrated an easy-to-use framework combining Python flexibility with AAD (Automatic Adjoint Differentiation) and "bare metal" performance, speeding up quantitative models by a thousandfold.
