What?

At Duality Institute, our long-term vision is to operate two parallel branches - one dedicated to scientific research and the other to financial trading - hence the name "Duality".

Why?

With years of experience in the hedge fund industry and academia, our founders observed that:

  1. Hedge funds deliver exceptional operational efficiency and attractive payouts, yet contribute limited social benefit.
  2. Public research organizations produce valuable knowledge for public, offering great social benefit, but often lack the incentives and resources to retain talent and operate efficiently.

To bridge these gaps, we’re building a trading‑funded research institute. A portion of our trading profits will be dedicated to scientific research projects, and in return the research arm equips our trading arm with cutting‑edge AI tools and drives long‑term upside by commercializing its findings.

How?

We adopt a phased approach with three key steps:

  1. Develop CILA: Duality Institute will develop a Gen-AI model named CILA, specialized for financial trading. This will be our first client-facing product.
  2. Launch Duality Trading
    • A specialized variant of CILA will be deployed internally at Duality Trading as our proprietary research tool.
    • We will start by using proprietary capital for trading to gain experience with AI-driven research process.
    • With a proven research model, we will expand to raise client capital.
  3. Duality Model
    • Trading serves as a funding source for research initiatives.
    • DI expands its research efforts beyond CILA into other areas.

Duality Institute, Inc. is a Delaware corporation.
