Congrats to our CEO Steven Ramirez for your spot on @FinancialBrand’s Top Financial Services Influencers to Follow! j.mp/2hOhvoW

When is the last time you thought about “going to the bank?” Of course you’re going to open the app on your phone, in most cases. But does that mean banking should become completely digital? Is it still important for businesses to deliver a human touch? What’s the appropriate role for AI in delivering a better customer experience? These are a few of the conversations I’m looking forward to with clients and friends at Finovate. Will you be in San Diego? Please DM, I’d love to connect. And please catch one of the two panels I’ll be moderating. Learn more about Beyond the Arc, Inc.'s fintech marketing and strategy practice: dub.sh/fintech #fintech #AI #Finovate #finovate
