VOLUNTEER
Help us bring better fintech to locally owned financial institutions across North America.
We're the North American Fintech Coalition, a new nonprofit corporation run by 20+ early-stage fintech startups wanting to work with credit unions and community banks. We're trying out a fresh new approach to educate startups and credit unions/community banks about working effectively with each other—and to ultimately create better tech products for them by incorporating their feedback from the ground up.
With this goal in mind, we're running at least ten streaming events per year, plus numerous in-person social events in multiple cities. We're also providing information to credit unions, community banks, fintech startups, and investors all over the US and Canada. That takes a lot of work. Would you like to helps us with it?
There are three ways to get involved:
The Executive Committee: Fintech or credit union/community bank non-decision makers who help us run the events.
The Advisory Committee: Credit union or community bank decision makers who don't have much time but give us feedback about the content of our offerings, and provide warm introductions to other decision makers.
Any other capacity: Would you like to help us out?
If you might want to be involved, please contact Howard Keener at info@namfintech.org. We'd love to hear from you!
