CO-OP FINANCIAL SERVICES HOSTS REGIONAL ROADSHOWS, EXTENDING LEARNINGS FROM THINK 19 CONFERENCE

Immersive Full Day Events Bring Industry Expertise to Doorsteps of Credit Unions

CO-OP Financial Services is bringing payments and digital transformation expertise to regional credit union leaders through six, single-day “Roadshow” events running July-October in locations across the country. Attendees will learn strategies for identifying and leveraging new opportunities for growth and optimizing member experience, network with other credit union leaders and come away with new tools to immediately put into action.

According to Samantha Paxson, Chief Experience Officer for CO-OP, the Roadshow events are an extension of the peer networking and strategic learning exercises that happen each year at the THINK conference.

“At THINK 19 in May, we explored the many doors that rapid evolution and adoption of technology are opening for credit unions,” said Paxson. “As consumers connect, engage and relate to service providers in new, empowering ways, the potential for credit unions has never been more promising. With the smaller, more interactive setting of the Roadshow events, credit union leaders will have a greater opportunity to ask specific questions and walk away with a richer roadmap for transformation.”

Each CO-OP Roadshow will include presentations and interactive sessions designed to provide hands-on strategies credit unions can adopt now. Attendees will gain insights on topics including:

  • Uncover new opportunities for credit unions by exploring the latest consumer and fintech trends.
  • Identify strategies that can accelerate credit union growth and transformation.
  • Connect big-picture ideas to actual tactics that can be utilized right now at attendees’ credit unions.
  • An overview of the CO-OP ecosystem, delivering the solutions and insights credit unions need to compete in today’s marketplace.
