The DEMOvation Challenge is back.

After a successful launch in 2014, Bank Innovation 2015, on March 2-3 in Seattle, will once again host an exclusive DEMOvation session featuring the best of FinTech startups and new technologies.

The DEMOvation session will kick-off Day Two of the conference, which brings together FinTech mavens with innovative bankers for a series of in-depth discussions. The DEMOvation session will showcase truly innovative companies, giving them the opportunity to show off their technology in front of an engaged audience of banking innovation professionals. Attendees vote on the demos to choose a Best of Show winner.

The DEMOvation Challenge, in advance of the conference, determines which startups will secure one of a limited number of complimentary demo slots. Judges will be looking for startups launched within the last 24 months that possess unique intellectual property or business model or are differentiated from other FinTech startups.

The companies that won demo slots last year were: Phroogal (voted the winner by conference attendees) plus  CUneXus, Fiserv, LICUOS, meSuma, My Virtual Strongbox, nCino, Nerture, Sedicii, and Microstrategy.

The judges for 2015 are:

• Laurence Berkowitz, Advisor (Israel), Bank Innovation
• Sam Maule, Manager, Carlisle & Gallagher Consulting Group
• Philip Ryan, Editor, Bank Innovation
• Dominic Venturo, Chief Innovation Officer for Payments, US Bank
