1. Regulators laying out the framework for fintech innovation in 2024
AI in financial services is exciting, but like all innovation it needs regulatory guardrails to protect consumers and lenders. It's a crucial time to hear from leaders at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau on this and all hot innovation and competition topics. We also have the agency that oversees Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, in addition to the government-sponsored enterprises themselves on how they're supporting innovation while keeping our system safe. Come listen to the people formulating and testing the latest rules and guidelines that guide banks, lenders, and fintech firms in 2024.

Have you ever seen an American Idol-like competition for sales presentations? In this highly informative and entertaining contest sponsored by LendingTree, software providers have 7 minutes to pitch one of their products and have three expert judges offer feedback in real time. In addition to some market heavyweights, this year's contest features up-and-comers straight out of tech incubators and fresh funding rounds (think Gateless, Haven and more) showing off products very few have seen. The winner is awarded a cash prize from LendingTree.
