RossTalks 2019: Jenny Just and Dean Scott DeRue Talk about the Intersection of Finance and Tech

Michigan Ross alum Jenny Just, BBA '90, is co-founder and one of two managing members of Chicago-based PEAK6 Investments LLC.
Just got her start in the industry working in the trading department of O'Connor & Associates and on the floor of the Chicago Board Options Exchange. In 1997, she co-founded PEAK6, and it became one of the first firms to develop sophisticated, proprietary technology that efficiently manages risk in the options market.
In 2019, Michigan Ross in partnership with PEAK6 launched the Michigan Ross FinTech Initiative to prepare students for successful careers in the rapidly growing fintech sector.
Scott DeRue, the Edward J. Frey Dean of the Stephen M. Ross School of Business, had the chance to sit down with Just at an alumni RossTalks event in Chicago.
