explore future trends in financial technology
MONETT,
Mo., Nov. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/
-- Jack Henry™
(Nasdaq: JKHY) is launching its first-ever Developer Conference
(Devcon) on November 20, 2024, at the
Will Rogers Memorial Center in
Fort Worth, Texas.
Jack Henry Devcon will bring together developers and
leaders from fintechs, financial institutions, and technology
companies currently building or planning to build on Jack Henry's developer platform. While the
recent Jack Henry Connect event focused on financial institution
leadership, Devcon is designed for a more technical audience,
providing an opportunity to dive deeper into Jack Henry's APIs and explore the tools,
features, and insights necessary to create innovative
solutions.
Participants will hear from Jack
Henry leaders about the present state and potential future
of financial technology, while also learning about best practices
they can implement in their organizations. In addition, the event
will offer valuable networking opportunities, enabling developers
to connect, exchange ideas, and foster relationships that could
lead to future collaborations.
"While many conferences take a broad, high-level approach, Jack
Henry Devcon offers an invaluable opportunity for the
technical teams at financial institutions and fintechs to
delve into the details of new innovations and technology," said
Amanda Horton, SVP, Director of
Digital Banking Development at Simmons Bank. "We're excited for the
opportunity to engage with this community and look forward to
insightful conversations that will help us continue delivering
modern banking experiences that better serve our
accountholders."
This event further supports Jack
Henry's technology modernization strategy, which is
centered on the company's ongoing development of a single, modern,
open-banking platform that enables easy access to a broad ecosystem
of Jack Henry solutions and
third-party fintechs. To date, the company has integrated more than
1,000 fintechs into its ecosystem.
The ability to integrate technology is especially important to
financial institutions making buying decisions – more than 90
percent plan to embed third-party technology into their digital
banking experiences, according to research from Jack Henry's 2024 Benchmark Study.
"Jack Henry remains committed to
fostering a collaborative ecosystem that offers financial
institutions an open environment to innovate, along with access to
hundreds of fintechs, ensuring they stay relevant and
competitive both now and in the future," said Chad Killingsworth, Head of Engineering with
Jack Henry. "Jack Henry's Devcon supports this strategy by
creating a space for developers across the industry to collaborate,
explore new possibilities, and uncover capabilities they may not
have considered before."
