Future Branches Spotlights Speakers and Subjects for Austin Conference

Adrenaline’s CXO Gina Bleedorn presents “Branch Forward: Future-Proofing the Branch Channel” and the company’s transformation specialists will be available to meet with conference attendees for on-site consultations

Monday, November 21, 2022 – Future Branches has announced its industry-leading lineup of speakers for the upcoming conference in Austin, Texas from December 6-8, 2022. Featuring three days of inspiration and activation by leaders across the financial services industry, the conference highlights successes from institutions of all sizes and offers conversations and connections with some of the best minds in retail banking. The only event focused exclusively on banking’s retail channel, Future Branches gathers together senior retail banking executives looking for the best tools, tactics and technologies to make the banking experience better for today and tomorrow.  

As one of Future Branches 2022’s session speakers, Adrenaline’s CXO Gina Bleedorn is presenting “Branch Forward: Future-Proofing the Branch Channel.” This session focuses on the branch as the place where banking’s most valuable relationships are seeded and take root. Even as new digital demands transform transactions, branch banking remains a critical channel for creating lifelong customers. “It may be surprising to many, but the branch had a bit of a renaissance during COVID,” says Gina Bleedorn. “Monthly visits increased eight percentage points and that level has held steady through to today. I believe that’s because people value consultation with experts.”

In this compelling session, Gina will explore how to create a flexible framework for branch transformation that can efficiently deliver meaningful experiences that can evolve to meet the demands of the future – whatever it may hold.  Attendees will learn how to:

  • Use the right data to inform where to save and where to grow
  • Create a strategy for expansion, balancing the current state with future growth
  • Recalibrate investment across the network to fund branch transformation
  • Extend newly designed experiences that scale from flagships to self-service options
  • Leverage the branch experience as a unique expression of your brand

Future Branches is a 3-day industry conference dedicated to exploring how financial institutions can make the most of their retail presence – by “revamping in-store technology, revitalizing front-line associates and reimagining branch processes” – to meet the ever-changing demands of banking consumers.
