Digital Competition - SPARK 2026 at GSA — Virtual

About The Role

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Join us in the fight against SPARK!&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;In GSA&#39;s boardroom sits SPARK - a decades-old blade server, entombed forever in acrylic to be displayed as a proud reminder of GSA&#39;s journey.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;SPARK was an invaluable step toward the sophisticated algorithms in use today, but was retired from active trading and destined never to be booted up again.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;But last night, through a series of unfortunate errors, the server was reconnected to GSA&#39;s internal network. In the decades spent sitting on the boardroom shelf its algorithms have warped beyond recognition. SPARK now has a conscience of its own...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Compete to win prizes!&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;Compete with other students in a race to shut SPARK down before it finds a way to dominate every electronic trading market in the world.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;For 21 days (23rd of November until the 13th of December) a range of exciting daily prizes will be on offer to those brave enough to take on SPARK in a series of fiendishly difficult challenges.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The contestant deemed to have been most instrumental in the fight against SPARK will also be eligible to win a grand prize.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Sign up for SPARK today to prepare for the fight!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
