PEAK6 Inclusion & Diversity

PEAK6’s commitment to inclusion and diversity is reflected in how it creates pathways for underrepresented talent to enter and succeed in traditionally homogenous fields. Through hands-on programs like internships and a focus on equitable access to learning, the company empowers individuals with the skills, confidence, and support needed to thrive. This approach helps break down barriers and reinforces the belief that opportunity and success should be accessible to all.

“The PEAK6 internship helped me gain confidence in my ability to be successful in a field that has historically had more representation by men. I’ll never forget the time, a year before the internship, that a man next to me opened the Robinhood app and told me I ‘would never understand this stuff.’ The PEAK6 internship is proof that that is not the case; women are completely capable of being successful traders when given the necessary education and tools.”

PEAK6’s commitment to inclusion and diversity is brought to life through intentional programs that expand access and create supportive communities for underrepresented talent. By offering hands-on learning experiences and fostering environments rooted in collaboration and belonging, the company helps individuals build confidence and explore new career paths. These initiatives not only open doors, but also create networks and experiences that enable long-term success in fields where representation has historically been limited.

“From the start, PEAK6 emphasizes the importance of teamwork and communication between peers. I really enjoyed learning about trading with a cohort of other like-minded women+ who were from all different academic backgrounds.”
