GRAND RAPIDS, Mich.–CU*Answers has announced a new event that will replace its annual CEO Strategies conference. The CUSO said it will host its first 2018 CEO Strategic Developers Boot CampNov. 5-9, as part of a “new opportunity for CEOs and their business development executives to participate in creating the solutions that CU*Answers and the cuasterisk.com network will take to market.”
According to CU*Answers, the event will bring credit union CEOs and senior-level executives who have a “builder’s soul” together with CU*Answers strategic leaders and designers to build a future that is based on what CUSO participants all want to own and use.
Topics being planned include Designing the Future of Internet Retailing, Designing Teller Platforms for Our Future, and Designing the Future for Online and Mobile Tools, the company said.
Randy Karnes, CU*Answers CEO, added the event is intended to evolve the concept of a boot camp, which has been a very successful format for the CUSO over the past couple of years, to target directly credit union senior executives for this new event.
“We want to marry the drive of credit union designers with cooperative-owned designer resources, to engage strategy-makers to actually build something, not just talk about what they want,” said Karnes.
