David sent a message to Abigail Johnson – President and Chief Executive Officer of Fidelity Investments and Chairman of Fidelity Worldwide Investment email address that said:
Dear Abigail,
At a recent meeting in New York, Patrick Morris of Hagin Investments and Reginald Brown of Cantor Fitzgerald suggested that I reach out to you about the ETF opportunities enabled by our soon-to-be-launched CNBC100 Innovation Alpha Index. For the past three years, our long-only U.S. equities quant fund based on M-CAM's Innovation Alpha approach has been a top-performer and your name was suggested as a potential partner. I just found this page while looking at your various presentations and thought I'd drop you a note. Have a lovely day!
