Seventh ThinkTECH Accelerator culminates with Colorado showcase

ICBA this week hosted its latest ThinkTECH Accelerator Showcase spotlighting growth-stage companies that serve or wish to serve community banks and their customers.

What’s New: For the first time, ICBA held the showcase at the Graduate School of Banking at Colorado for its student body of nearly 500 bankers and streamed online for a virtual audience. The showcase—in which companies share solutions in live pitches to community bankers—is the culmination of the latest Accelerator program.

Latest Accelerator: The seventh Accelerator program focused on artificial intelligence, financial health and wellness, subscription management, digital onboarding, and compliance. Presenting companies included Prelim Technologies, Rego Payment Architectures, FINBOA, RiskScout, ScribeUp, and Savvi AI.

Recognition: The showcase concluded with several awards:

  • Rego Payment Architectures received the Bankers Choice award – Sponsored by Fiserv, which is based on an audience vote.

  • ScribeUp received the Most Valuable Participant award – Sponsored by TrueNorth, which recognizes the most evolved fintech offering.

  • FINBOA’s Dheeraj Singal received the program’s All-Heart award – Sponsored by Wipfli LLP, the All-Heart award is the only individual recipient honor given as part of the ThinkTECH Accelerator, celebrating an individual’s demonstrated passion, empathy, and commitment to making a positive impact on those around them, including community banks.
