The ICBA LEAD FWD Summit is the best banking conference I have ever attended! We covered a very diverse set of topics and issues, yet the whole thing felt so focused and targeted to growing us as bankers and as people.

I made connections with bankers from around the country and look forward to reaching out to them in the future. It was also so much fun to meet some of my favorite social media banking friends in real life!"
