On behalf of the Independent Community Bankers of America, you are invited to attend a two-day innovation event in Atlanta, Georgia.
Catch a glimpse into the future of banking with high-tech, high-touch solutions tailored for community banks. On June 28, experience Demo Day the culmination of the 2023 ICBA ThinkTECH Accelerator program’s 10-week program where community bankers connect with emerging fintech companies. On June 29, seize the opportunity to connect directly with the six cohort companies to discuss their solutions and your bank’s needs.
This is our first cohort since bringing the Accelerator in house. The cohort has worked hard over the past 10 weeks to hone their value proposition based on collaboration with our bankers. You will have the opportunity to witness their seven-minute pitches, vote for your favorite solution as we recognize the audience choice and MVP (Most Valuable Participant) award winners.
The ThinkTECH accelerator program is in fifth year, more than 40 alumni companies have graduated and 95% are still active or have been acquired. Alumni have raised more than a billion dollars combined! 75+ banks and 300+ bankers have engaged in this year’s program helping better shape and mold these fintech solutions for community banking.
