Hosted by Charles Potts, ICBA's Chief Innovation Officer
Inspired by countless conversations with community bankers, ICBA’s Communities of Innovation podcast invites community bankers to share their stories, their experiences, and how innovation has shaped their journey. Join us for conversations on emerging technology, fintech, and the evershifting landscape of the community banking industry.
Host Charles Potts, Chief Innovation Officer of the Independent Community Bankers of America, talks with Steve Schnall, CEO of Quontic Bank about how the bank launched a cryptocurrency rewards program to generate customer interest. Brian Laverdure, Vice President, Payments and Technology Policy for ICBA offers insight on the changing crypto regulatory environment.
Host Charles Potts, ICBA’s chief innovation officer, talks with Coastal Community Bank CEO Eric Sprink about his life as both a technologist and a community banker.

Eric and Charles discuss community bank milestones for partnering with fintechs and potential BaaS implementation.
