Accelerated Episode 1 | Lendsmart with AK Patel
Welcome to Accelerated. In Accelerated, William Mills and The Venture Center pull back the curtain to share a behind-the-scenes, candid look at how fintech-banking deals are really made and why they're important.
In the debut episode of Accelerated, William Mills Agency's Heather Sugg and The Venture Center's Wayne Miller talk with ICBA ThinkTECH Accelerator Alumni AK Patel of Lendsmart and Patrick Sells, formerly of Quantic Bank, about how fintechs and banks can develop deep relationships that help both achieve greatness. They discuss a topic that you'll hear throughout this series: that bankers are no longer comfortable with a status quo – the community bank industry is relying on bank and fintech partnerships to provide convenience, ease and transparency and relate to consumers quickly.
