FinovateFall 2011 Demo Videos Now Available

Finovate2011_low.png

Last month in Manhattan, 63 leading fintech companies showed off their latest innovations to a packed house at FinovateFall 2011. The audience was our largest ever with over 1,000 bankers, analysts, VCs, bloggers, press and entrepreneurs in attendance.

As usual, we’ve put the videos of all the demos live in the archives for free so you can watch at your convenience and share them with others. We hope you enjoy the videos and that you’ll consider joining us in person at our next conference, FinovateEurope 2012 (February 7th in London)!  

FinovateFall 2011 was sponsored by: The Bancorp, Tier One Partners, TxVia, and the law firm of CB&S.

FinovateFall 2011 was partners with: BankInnovation.net, BankerStuff, Celent, CardWeb, deutsche-startups.de, Filene Research Institute, Finance on WindowsPYMNTS.com, Mercator Advisory Group, MyBankTracker.com & Mobile-Financial.com.

Finovate Fall 2011 Best of Show Winners Named

Thumbnail image for Fall2011_BOS Logo.jpg

Wow, what a two days! Lot’s of brilliant new technology, creative twists on the state-of-the-art, and things that will someday be mainstream. As usual, at the end of each day the audience voted on their three favorite demos and nine ended up being crowned Best of Show (see note for methodology).

FinovateFall 2011 Best of Show winners (in alphabetical order):

We’ll have videos of all 63 demos posted at Finovate as fast as possible (probably 2 weeks out). 

Thanks to everyone who participated. I know it’s a cliche, but we couldn’t have done it without you!

——————————

Notes on methodology:
1. Only audience members NOT associated with demoing companies were eligible to vote. Finovate employees did not vote.   
2. Attendees were encouraged to note their favorites as the day went on and choose 3 favorites from just the demos of that day. Ballots were turned in at the end of the last demo session each day. 
3. The exact written instructions given to attendees: “Please rate (the companies) on the basis of demo quality and potential impact of the innovation demoed. Note: Ballots with more than three companies circled will not be counted.” 
4. The nine companies appearing on the highest percentage of submitted ballots were named Best of Show.

Finovate Fall 2011 Kicks Off Tuesday, Sep. 20

imageAs a child, my family traveled all over the country by car, visiting just about every major city in 45 states. But my dad always steered at least 50 miles clear of New York City, so I didn’t get my first taste of Manhattan until I was almost 30.

Now, it’s my favorite city in the world, and I’m thrilled we are able to bring FinovateFall 2011 back to the Big Apple for the fifth time. And for the fifth straight time, we’ve broken the previous attendance record, with a crowd of 1,000 descending on Pier 92 Tuesday. Thanks everyone for your support!

———————————-

imageSchedule: Registration begins at 8:00 AM Tuesday and Wednesday, with demos starting at 9:00 AM each day. We’ll announce the Best of Show winners at 5PM Wed. 

Live blog: This year, we’ll be live blogging the product announcements here on Netbanker. You can also follow the usually-quite-active Twitter stream at (#finovate). And I’ll also be adding my 2 cents through our Finovate Twitter account. While there’s no live video stream, we’ll post full-length videos of each demo at Finovate.com within a few weeks.

Presenters: Sixty-four companies will launch new products via live, 7-minute demos from stage. Here are the presenters in alphabetic order.

Finovate2011_low.png

Over the last 5 years of organizing FinovateFall, we’ve been told two things again and again by attendees. The first is that they love the event’s fast-paced, demo-only format for showcasing new innovations (i.e. slides suck). The second is what really makes the event a “must attend” is the chance to network with the other attendees. 

From the very beginning, Finovate conferences have attracted a high-impact blend of fintech entrepreneurs, banking and finance execs, industry analysts, venture capitalists, major press, financial bloggers, and tech pundits. The show this fall in Manhattan promises to deliver that same high-quality mixture again in record-setting numbers.

Get Your FinovateFall Ticket Before Midnight on Friday June 24 to Lock in Your Seat (and Save $200!)

Finovate2011_low.png

Innovative. Inspiring. Fascinating.

Whatever your preferred descriptor, the scores of companies that have submitted applications to demo their latest and greatest at FinovateFall (September 20-21 in NYC) can live up to it.

They’re innovating in everything from biometric security to mobile apps to online lending to artificial intelligence to the “gamification” of financial education and much more. Right now, we’re sorting through the thick stack of applications to fill FinovateFall‘s two days with fintech’s best new ideas for your education and enjoyment.

Last year, the fall conference sold out weeks in advance so be sure to get your ticket now to lock in your seat (and the early-bird price) to see these exciting demos of new technology and connect with hundreds of leading financial executives, venture capitalists, industry analysts, reporters and technology entrepreneurs.

Register before midnight on Friday, June 24th, to save $200 off the list price and reserve your seat. We’ll see you in September!

FinovateFall: Last Chance to Save $300 on Sep. 20-21 Event

image Thanks to everyone who made FinovateSpring a success just a week ago (my Twitter transcript here). But innovation doesn’t stand still, so we are already collecting applications and selling tickets for FinovateFall in New York City.

In fact, if you want to save on your fall ticket, register by the end of the day Friday (May 20) to receive $300 off regular ticket prices. Based on early results, it could be the biggest Finovate yet.

Last year, the conference expanded to two days (selling out three weeks in advance) and the audience loved it. Once again, each day will be packed with our unique blend of short, fast-paced onstage demos (no slides allowed) and intimate networking time with top executives from the demoing companies.  With each company receiving just seven minutes onstage, FinovateFall is the only place to see dozens of fintech innovations in such a short period of time.

So make sure you are part of the excitement at the fifth annual NYC Finovate on Sep. 20 & 21, and save $300, by registering today!

FinovateFall demos

Can’t make it to FinovateSpring? Then don’t miss out on FinovateFall this September in NYC!

Finovate2011_low.png

In less than four weeks dozens of leading fintech companies will take the stage at FinovateSpring in San Francisco to demo their latest innovations to a packed audience of companies like Wells Fargo, PayPal, Time Inc., SunTrust, Bank of America, H&R Block, Ally Bank, Intuit, Yahoo, Citi, Jack Henry, Bank of Montreal, Bain Capital and Visa.

While we are incredibly excited about that show (it’s shaping up to be the biggest Finovate ever and we still have a few tickets remaining), we would be doing you a disservice if we didn’t point out that the FinovateFall pre-sale ticket price of only $995 (a savings of $400) will expire this Friday (less than 48 hours from now).

So, if you’re unable to join us in San Francisco in May or simply want a great deal on FinovateFall, I highly encourage you to lock in your seat and your savings of $400 for the fall event in Manhattan. We’ve moved to a great new location since we sold out the old location three weeks ahead of the event last year and expect to pack the new space with awesome debuts of the best new fintech innovations as well as a high-quality audience of financial and bank executives, venture capitalists, press, industry analysts and entrepreneurs. We hope to see you there!

Announcing FinovateFall 2011 (September 20 & 21 in NYC) — Apply to Demo Your Latest Fintech Innovation

Finovate2011_low.png

I’m pleased to announce that FinovateFall 2011 will take place on September 20 & 21 in New York City. The show will be our fifth annual Finovate in Manhattan and we’re incredibly excited to be back.

Last year, the conference featured a new two-day duration with 56 demos and the audience loved it so we’re keeping it this year. Sadly, because the 2010 show’s attendance grew more than 50%, we sold out our old space several weeks ahead of time. So, this year, I’m thrilled to announce that we’re moving to a new space. In fact, we’re renting a pier. Yes, an entire pier (Pier 92 to be specific) worth of space so you can come see the best new innovations in financial and banking technology in comfort along with hundreds of other leading senior executives, venture capitalists, industry analysts, major press and technology entrepreneurs.

There is a tremendous amount of innovation happening in fintech right now (including dozens of new ideas that will debut at FinovateSpring in San Francisco in just a few weeks), and the fall show is already shaping up to feature an array of exciting, fast-paced 7-minute demos (no slides allowed!) on stage.

If you’re a startup, established company, or financial institution innovating in financial or banking technology, we’d love to have you apply to demo your latest and greatest at the conference. To get more details, please email us at demo@finovate.com.

If you’re interested in watching the future of financial and banking technology unfold live on stage at this must-attend event then get your pre-sale ticket today for FinovateFall 2011 and save $400 off the list price. Tickets have already started to sell before this formal announcement, and we don’t want you to miss out! We’ll see you in September!
