The FCS is delighted to partner with Lansons Intermarket to present a powerful breakfast discussion on the importance of Reputation Management.

The breakfast will feature a panel of senior marketers who will address the major concerns facing global brands in financial services, including proactive strategies to be deployed against the ever-evolving digital and social landscape.

The event will open with a keynote presentation by Tony Langham, author of Reputation Management: The Future of Corporate Communications and Public Relations. Tony co-founded London-based Lansons in 1989 and has since helped build the firm into a leading independent reputation management consultancy.  Earlier this year, Lansons acquired Intermarket, the specialist strategic communications consultancy based in New York and founded by Matt Zachowski and Martin Mosbacher in 1986.

Join us for a compelling conversation about how marketers should leverage their greatest asset: their brand's reputation.

THIS EVENT IS SOLD OUT.

FCS Charlotte continues its compelling luncheon series with a panel discussion on "Bank Innovation vs. Fintech... and what it means to marketers."

The event will open with a presentation by John Tuders, Director of Innovation at Grant Thornton and Adjunct Professor of Innovation at University of North Carolina at Charlotte (UNCC). He will then moderate a panel of industry professionals facing the diverse challenges posed by innovation.

Some of the questions about Innovation to be tackled at this event include:

• Understanding when you need a partner?
• Understanding who to partner with?
• Understanding how to be an effective partner?
• How do you market “Powered By" or “In Partnership With”?

These are the right questions for Banks to consider when working with Fintechs. Speed to market and expertise are key to delivering Innovative Products and Solutions.  There's no need to go it alone.

Join us for another great discussion -- and the camaraderie of fellow Charlotte marketers supporting the FCS.

The program will begin promptly at 11:45am.

At this event, we will again stage our very successful "dessert mixer"; after the luncheon panel (12:45pm), we'll break for this networking feature, allowing all our guests to mingle with the speakers and each other over sweets and coffee.

For sponsorship opportunities, please contact FCS Charlotte VP Michael O'Donnell.

FCS San Francisco's 4th of 7 planned breakfasts in 2019 will address "Banking in a Cashless Society."

Ever since the introduction of the general-purpose credit card in the 1950s, the United States has been slowly moving toward a cashless society. In 2016, credit-card transactions eclipsed cash transactions globally, with the trend becoming more prevalent as technology continues to make paper currency irrelevant. But how will such a change influence the broader world of global financial services, from retail banking to investment management?

Join us for another content-driven event highlighted by shared insights, good conversations, and valuable networking.
