The fourteenth annual event, held in New York City, featured more than 1,600 students from 150-plus schools.
Eberardo Perez C’26, Joseph Rojek C’25, and Erik Rothman C’26 represented The Fund, which currently has more than 50 active student members. The club oversees an investment portfolio funded by alumni investors, providing undergraduates the chance to put lessons learned in the classroom into real, consequential practice.
This marked the first year Drew participated in the event. The team competed in the Small Fund category against other funds managing less than $100,000. Winners were determined based on sharpe ratios from 2024 portfolio performance and a poster presentation.
“We are so happy to have represented Drew in such a way,” said Rojek. “We definitely earned a spot on the map, and are confident that this will go a long way for Drew and The Fund.”
On top of competitions, the two-day event also featured keynote panels and investment-related workshops covering topics from tariffs to crypto mining.
“The Fund absorbed it all,” said Rojek. “The GAME was an exhilarating event.”
