Apple has its Genius Bar, and Auto Finance Innovation 2018 has its “Innovation Bar,” where innovation and mobility experts share their wisdom (and complimentary cocktails).
The event, taking place March 8, at the Parc 55 Hotel in San Francisco, will feature three financial experts at their own “bar” during the closing cocktail reception, ready to dispense advice. Whether you’re a startup with an idea, or a financial services executive with a structural problem to solve, the Innovation Bar has what you need.
Andy Clements, senior vice president of information technology at Global Lending Services, will join this year’s Innovation Bar to discuss ways to leverage automation in the credit decisioning process, adding your secret sauce into off-the-shelf fintech products, how to use machine learning to bolster performance and more. Clements leads application development at Global Lending Services (GLS), an analytic and technology-driven subprime auto finance company. Previously, he worked at Capital One Financial Corp. for 13 years, where he built and ran substantial portions of the data environment including the Capital One Auto Finance data warehouse.
