They explore the challenges of staying creative at a corporation and offer workarounds as well as opine on the latest and greatest in small business banking. Jim also shares how he dreamed up Finovate (spoiler: the idea started with reading an American Banker article). You’ll also hear which bank couldn’t get into the first Finovate and how Mary fell into a fountain (separate incidents).
