FEATURING: Colton Pond and Simon Taylor, Co-founders of Fintech NerdCon

Today, I’m excited to welcome Colton Pond and Simon Taylor, the visionary co-founders of Fintech NerdCon to the Banking Transformed podcast. Fintech NerdCon is an event with no meetings, no sales booths … just top-tier networking with fintech operators and builders. It’s what happens when a fintech passion, Comic-Con energy, and genuine community building come together.

In this conversation, we’ll explore why they believe the fintech conference circuit needs disruption, how they’re creating a different kind of community experience, and what banks, fintechs, and ecosystem builders should focus on to succeed in the industry’s next phase.

In addition, they provide an inside look into what will make this event different from any the banking industry has ever experienced.
