Credit Union Spotlight: putting the focus on credit unions and the innovators who support them

Finovate’s Credit Union Spotlight (presented by Curql) is a gathering place for CU executives. With innovative solutions specifically for the CU ecosystem and dedicated networking, this is a place where CUs can come to learn from each other and build for their future.

Wednesday, September 10, 8:30-10:30am

An exclusive gathering space

An exclusive gathering space

This session is only open to credit unions and a select few fintechs who support them. We’ll host this session in a breakout room away from the general Finovate audience, giving CU executives a place where they can be open with each other, share best practices, and talk through common challenges.

Space is limited, and only CU employees are eligible to attend. To join, reach out to Rianne.Thompson@informa.com to get yourself on the guest list.

Fintech innovators building for Credit Unions

More and more fintechs are building solutions with credit unions in mind, and the Credit Union Spotlight will feature 9 fintechs who are actively building solutions dedicated to that space. Every CU Spotlight attendee will be able to learn more about these innovators, connect with them, and share feedback.

If you’ve ever felt like the fintech ecosystem doesn’t understand the challenges that credit unions face, this is a perfect place to connect with innovators who understand what makes unique.

What to expect on site

Exclusive networking breakfast

The session kicks off on Wednesday morning with a separate credit-union-only breakfast in the Astor Ballroom on the 7th floor of the hotel. This will be an open session where attendees can connect with each other over coffee and breakfast, and talk about things they don’t want to share with the general Finovate audience

Rotating fintech roundtables

Following the breakfast, we’ll invite 9 fintechs into the room to share their solutions. Each fintech will have a very limited amount of time to introduce themselves, and then we’ll rotate them around the room, so every attendee gets to learn more about every company. CU’s can then follow up with the fintechs who look relevant/interesting.

What else is included

While the CU Spotlight is a great place to meet innovative fintechs, all CU Spotlight attendees will also be able to attend all of the other aspects of FinovateFall. With over 60 innovative demos, high-impact networking, and insightful, expert speakers, there’s much more to the show than this session itself. We’ve designed it so that you don’t have to miss the other things that make Finovate great in order to attend.
