A Letter from our Oversight Chair

Quinn Guth speaking at a podium during the GAME Forum opening ceremony.

I’m honored to welcome you to GAME Forum XIV.

Over the past year, I’ve had the privilege of leading a team of 49 student volunteers as we took on the shared responsibility of upholding the legacy of this premier event for aspiring financial professionals.

It’s been my most gratifying year at Quinnipiac and I’ll always cherish the relationships we built and the memories we made.

As a native of Brookfield, Connecticut, my interest in studying at Quinnipiac was two-fold: I knew I wanted to pursue a meaningful career in business, and as an added bonus I got the opportunity to play Division I basketball close to home. I consider myself extremely fortunate to have been part of two great teams: the Bobcats and the GAME Forum committee. My predecessor, Aidan Greene ’23, MBA ’24, provided the blueprint that helped me guide my GAME team. And I’m proud to pass the proverbial headset to my successor, Robert Margiotta, who will no doubt build on the success of this year’s event.

A 40-minute basketball game is often decided by one play that takes just a second or two to unfold. These are small yet pivotal moments where skill and effort meet opportunity. Life is like that. The business world certainly is, too. It’s up to the individual to recognize and seize the moment when it presents itself.

Over these next few days, you will encounter lots of these little moments. You’ll make connections that open pathways you never expected. My advice to you is to be present. Be open. Be ready to absorb the wisdom of the world’s foremost financial minds. These next few days will be packed with “plays” that can change your trajectory. It’s up to you to make the play.

Sincerely,

Quinn Guth ’24, MBA ’25 

Thank You Student Volunteers

As the largest student-run financial conference in the world, this event provides a rare and invaluable opportunity for participants to engage with industry leaders and discuss best practices. It is a testament to the dedication and hard work of the student organizers that such a high-profile event could be successfully executed. The volunteers' efforts in ensuring the smooth flow of attendees and providing assistance in various tasks were essential to the success of the event. Their contribution not only made a significant impact on the conference but also provided a unique learning experience for themselves and fellow students from across the country and overseas. Their selflessness and commitment to excellence are truly appreciated and will not be forgotten.
