MDT brings together credit union community at annual MDT E3 conference
Credit union clients and partners join forces to engage, educate and evolve
FARMINGTON HILLS, MI (June 10, 2024) — Member Driven Technologies (MDT), a CUSO that hosts the Symitar core processing system from Jack Henry™ to provide a private cloud alternative for core processing and IT needs, hosted its annual 2024 MDT E3 Conference in Southfield, Michigan last month.
Nearly 150 credit union clients and over 50 business partners, including 50 first timers, gathered to immerse themselves in the MDT E3 experience. Patty Corkery, president and CEO of Michigan Credit Union League (MCUL), kicked off the event by delving into the top challenges credit unions face and offering actionable strategies to succeed. MDT executives took the stage to give a strategic company update and Mimi Carsley, Jack Henry’s CFO, gave an update from Jack Henry. The event also featured over 40 educational sessions, exploring topics such as security, regulatory and compliance risks, emerging technologies, such as AI, member engagement strategies and more.
Ryan Chism, SVP of IT for Colorado Credit Union, has attended many of MDT’s client conferences. He explained, “We come back to MDT’s conference year after year because there is significant value in the interactions with both MDT executives as well as our credit union peers. The conference gives us a forum to collaborate, share common pain points and solutions and gain actionable insights.”
The event featured several off-site networking opportunities designed for attendees to engage in deeper conversations. Credit union and fintech leaders gathered at TopGolf Auburn Hills and embarked on a Detroit River boat tour to celebrate and reflect on time spent together. MDT E3’s Conference concluded with final remarks from company executives, announcing next year’s event will be held at The Westin Book Cadillac in Downtown Detroit and unveiling the new theme of “Engage, Educate, and Elevate.”
“This year’s event allowed our credit union community to engage in networking opportunities, educate through relevant sessions, and evolve together,” said Larry Nichols, president and CEO of MDT. “In addition to pertinent updates and professional development opportunities, our client conference is intentionally designed to optimize genuine human connection; we truly believe we are stronger together. MDT is proud of the success of this year’s event, and we already look forward to next year.”
