As the financial services landscape shifts, so does the role of Credit Union Service Organizations (CUSOs). This panel will explore the changing dynamics of CUSOs and credit union service providers, addressing key questions such as: Are traditional CUSOs still relevant? Do VC-backed FinTechs really align with the cooperative model? This is a complex and sometimes sensitive conversation—but NACUSO’s Reimagine conference is the place for candid, forward-thinking discussions.

- Strength in Unity: The Evolving Role of Advocacy (2:40 - 3:25 pm)
In a rapidly shifting regulatory landscape, collaboration between leagues, credit unions, CUSOs, and policymakers has never been more critical.
