BECOME A SPONSOR

The NBS Group is proud to take the lead from COCC, which previously hosted the bi-annual Upstate New York users’ conference. We aim to retain participation from many of the COCC-affiliated financial institutions while expanding the event’s reach. As the new producers, we are inviting financial institutions from across New York, as well as banks and credit unions from Northern Ohio, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Eastern New England, regardless of their core technology platform. Our goal is to bring together representatives from 30 to 50 financial institutions for this dynamic event.

This exclusive event brings together top technology providers, area bank and credit union senior officers, and industry thought leaders to discuss and share real world experiences in with AI, technology, regulatory, and innovative business strategies relative to community banking. We are looking for our sponsors and speakers to deliberately talk about what their companies do, what maybe new and improved, and where and how their products and services can help these community-based financial institutions better compete and improve their performance.

Hosted at the beautiful and historic Otesaga Resort, this conference combines valuable insights with unique networking opportunities, including the opportunity to visit Cooperstown and golf at the stunning Leatherstocking Golf Club.  By sponsoring this event, your organization will gain high-profile visibility among key decision-makers in the community banking sector in the northeast.
