"One of the biggest, soon-to-be additions to the Tiger family tree is Daniel Senft's NX1 Capital, which is set to launch in January with at least $1 billion. Senft, the former head of public equities at Philippe Laffont's Coatue, has begun making key hires, including an old coworker, a person familiar with the firm told Business Insider. Coatue ranks among the original Tiger Cubs, the now-famous network of Robertson's proteges."
"Former Coatue data scientist Alex Izydorcyzk, who led the manager's short-lived quant effort, is joining Senft's new manager, the person said. Izydorcyzk left Coatue in 2021 after the quant fund was shut down, Business Insider previously reported. According to LinkedIn, he had started his own data company, Cybersyn, which raised money from software provider Snowflake before it shut down last year."
