Since we started the Finovate conference series we’ve spent considerable time before each show selecting the companies, walking through demos, and blogging/tweeting about each one. But we’ve never done a full wrap-up and analysis afterwards.
Until now. Introducing our latest report:
The Best New Products at
FinovateSpring 2012
This post-show wrap-up is designed to help those that weren’t there get a better understanding of the major themes. And for those that were in attendance, it’s a box score to compare with your own notes and impressions.
In the report, we looked at the three big trends that emerged at FinovateSpring:
- Mobile 2.0: The feature set expands
- Ad-supported banking gets real
- Alt-banking: The rise of the “near bank” catering to the underserved
And we profiled each of the seven companies voted Best of Show by the attendees at the event (note 1):
- BehavioSec (post)
- BillGuard (post)
- Dwolla (post)
- iQuantifi (post)
- MoneyDesktop (post)
- Personal Capital (post)
- SoMoLend (post)
