We're spending this Friday reflecting on a busy and productive week at Finovate Fall 2024 in NYC! Check out some of our highlights below: ⭐ Fantastic content throughout the three days, one of our favorites was the Ken Hughes keynote about the customer experience ⭐ 65+ demos from growing fintechs and customers of fintechs. These stood out to us because we had the chance to learn about what these growing, innovative companies are doing and then meet with them in the exhibit hall. Unsurprisingly, we learned that many of these companies have employees in ATL! ⭐ The "How community banks can find a path to change & compete in a new digital world" briefing featuring our friend Wayne Miller of ICBA ⭐ Stephanie F.'s session "Accelerator All Stars: Is community the new commodity?" ⭐ Running into Neepa Patel of Themis and hearing about their positive experience with our #RunitbytheBuyers program ⭐ Spending time and working together with #TeamGeorgia, in particular Hillery Champagne Grant Wainscott Laura Gibson-Lamothe Glen Sarvady Stephanie F.

The hustle of NYC is rubbing off on me! Day 1 was a whirlwind 🌆—from catching demos and exploring the expo hall at Finovate to joining an inspiring Fintech Is Femme “Creator Summit” event at Rise, created by Barclays, and wrapping up with the exciting rooftop launch party for Trybe a new women-focused conference hitting Vegas in 2025 where women connect, collaborate, and get business done! 💼 Of course, I had a lot of conversations with folks excited about the work we are doing at the Georgia Fintech Academy. I often heard….“I wish we had one of those when I was in college”. 🙂👏🏾 💫 There’s so much energy in this city, and I’m loving every minute catching time with old and new friends. Can’t wait to see what Day 2 brings! #NYCHustle #Fintech #WomenInFintech #Networking #Innovation #Trybe2025 Hillery Champagne Grant Wainscott Sanjay Ahuja Amanda Estiverne-Colas Kathryn Vazquez Kmiotek Linda Kugblenu Kristin Slink Nicole Casperson Caroline Farley Ariel Serber Shadè Alcine Amyn Sadruddin
