Stripe Fintech for Good Community meetup: How to build successful bank relationships

​Join the Stripe Fintech for Good Community for a live panel on how fintech founders actually build bank relationships — from getting the first meeting to making it mean something.

​​Our panel brings together founders, operators, and ecosystem insiders who've watched these relationships play out from the inside. Together, we'll get specific about what actually works: who to reach, how to position your company in early conversations, and what banks are quietly evaluating before you ever get a second meeting.

​​Panelists

• ​​Pam Kaur, Head of Platform @ Alloy Labs

• ​​Kristen Castell, Managing Director @ Fintech CAFE

• ​​John Taylor Garner, Founder & CEO @ Odynn

• ​​Shreenath Regunathan, Founder @ Starlight

​​Moderated by Arden Evenson, Stripe Fintech for Good Community Builder & Founder of Firefly Advising
