Lunch and Learn: Session (1) - Bank Charter Options and the Utah Financial Services Ecosystem; Session (2) - AI in the FinTech Space

12:00 p.m. - 1:30 p.m.

Utah, with its industrial loan company law, has long been a hub for financial services companies that seek to operate innovative and novel bank. Today there are an increasing number of novel bank charter options at the state and federal levels. These options can create new use-cases for consumer payments, commercial deposits, stablecoins, and currency distribution, and potentially receive access to a Federal Reserve Master Account and payment services. Please join Washington, D.C. partner Matt Bisanz as he discusses developments in charter choice and what it means for the Utah financial services ecosystem. After, New York Mayer Brown partners, Anna Pinedo and Steffen Hemmerich, will share an update on Artificial Intelligence in the world of FinTech. Venture Capitalists and Founders will find this talk particularly interesting.
