Last week the CBA partnered with Finovate to help sponsor their spring conference held in San Francisco. CBA EVP & COO, Maurine Padden, attended the conference, which is the banking industry’s premier event showcasing emerging technology in the financial services sector. More than 60 firms presented their most innovative new solutions to an audience of more than 1,200 banking industry professionals.A networking session following the demos gave attendees the chance to connect one-on-one with young start-up companies as well as established industry leaders showcasing their cutting edge programs and applications.  

Also attending the event were leading financial executives, venture capitalists, press, industry analysts, bloggers and financial technology entrepreneurs. The CBA logo was prominently featured in the signage and printed conference materials. The CBA was also frequently recognized from the podium and acknowledged as an important partner and ally for the industry. In addition, several CBA members attended the conference, taking advantage of the discounted rate offered to our membership as an additional benefit of sponsoring this event.
