Joining Winslow at Ignite will be speakers from Citibank, Mastercard, Brex and City National Bank, to name a few. “I’d like to learn how we are going to reframe our perspective as an industry by putting consumers and small businesses at the center of efforts to innovate,” Winslow said about the event. “How we can make it more about them and less about us?”

Kabbage, which is based in Atlanta, pulls from banking data, accounting information and social media to speed up the loan underwriting process for small businesses. Customers can get loans of up to $250,000 with terms of six, 12 or 18 months. According to the company, qualifying for a loan takes about 10 minutes. The company said in October it has connected small businesses with $8 billion in loans to date. It also launched recent partnerships with GoDaddy and Alibaba.com to reach small businesses through online platforms.

Bank Innovation Ignite, which will take place on March 2-3 in Seattle, is a must-attend industry event for professionals overseeing financial technologies, product experiences and services. Other agenda items include brainstorming the next big fintech idea, lessons from big tech and making SME banking innovation work.
