President and CEO delivering “Branching Reimagined: Merging Data and Design for Strategic Transformation”
Monday, May 12, 2025 – From major players like Chase, Bank of America, and PNC to fast-growing regional banks, financial institutions continue to double down on physical branches as a critical component of growth. Evolving customer expectations and demand for consultative experiences are reshaping the in-person banking channel, so today’s branch investments must be smarter, more strategic, and deeply connected to building banking relationships that last. “As branch building booms, forward-thinking financial institutions are taking stock of their retail networks,” says Gina Bleedorn, President and CEO of Adrenaline, ahead of her summer session at Future Branches Boston. “There is a real need in the industry for smart strategies targeted at growth.”
After a strong showing in Austin last fall, the must-attend conference on branch banking is heading back to Boston from June 23-24, 2025. This summer edition of Future Branches will feature actionable insights, innovative formats, and success stories from across the industry. With financial institutions looking to optimize their networks and deliver meaningful customer experiences, Gina’s session about strategically using data and design for transformation is essential for banking leaders. The session will explore how financial institutions can make data-driven format decisions using branch archetypes, align branch investments with expected returns, and effectively plan, design, and deploy change at scale.
On Monday, June 23 at 8:50 a.m., Gina will present the session “Branching Reimagined: Merging Data and Design for Strategic Transformation.” Important insights include how institutions can develop their design and delivery strategy and prioritize branch quality over quantity across the network. Ultimately, Gina’s session will make a case that growth intensifies the need for transformative change.
In the session, attendees will learn how to:
- Merge data with innovative design to create branch format archetypes
- Optimize and maximize the value of in-person delivery
- Make informed branch decisions for M&A and organic growth
- Leverage the branch for effective cross-sell and acquisition
- Create a retail distribution strategy and multi-year transformation roadmap
