Innovators from Avoka to Yodlee are taking the stage to practice their presentations here on rehearsal day at FinDEVr San Francisco 2014. 

And if you are a fan of fintech innovation, it’s hard to imagine being in a better place over the next two days than at the Mission Bay Conference Center at UCSF for this first event for fintech developers.

After all, the fact of the matter is that when it comes to innovative financial technology, if they build it, there’s a good chance they’ll be here.

And we are hoping you will be too. We’ve got two days of presentations and demonstrations, workshops and dedicated, high-quality networking sessions – all geared toward helping the growing community of fintech developers do what they do best.

That means not just building the kinds of technologies that make commerce, investment, and saving easier, safer, and more efficient. It also means helping developers forge the kind of key relationships with industry professionals that will help plot the course of fintech innovation for years to come.

So with that in mind, here are a few last minute details to help you make the most of your FinDEVr experience this week.
