Last year Filene Research Institute held its annual big.bright.minds conference in Austin, Texas and it snowed. Locals there proclaimed that it never snows that time of year -- or ever really.

This year, Filene Research Institute held its annual big.bright.minds conference in San Diego, where it really doesn't have weather except for sun, sun, and more sun. Well, "America's Finest City" threw a curve ball on the conference and delivered a rainstorm for the ages, complete with thunder and lightning, floods, power outages, broken water mains, helicopter rescues, and much, much more.

The Filene hosts and conference attendees didn't let any of that nonsense sway their mission of delivering and digesting second-to-none content that will serve as an ideal way to close out 2018 and springboard into 2019. Some of the timely topics presented and discussed included:

• Disaster recovery (ironically)
• Pandemics
• Credit Unions of the 21st Century
• The Ongoing War for Talent
• Filene Alumni: Where are They Now?
• Effective Prototyping
• Consumer Decision Making
• Financial Insecurity
• Making Innovation Drive the Bottom Line

Check out our big.bright.minds conference wrap up and let us know your thoughts. And I profusely apologize in advance for mispronouncing anybody's name (which I did) and getting job titles wrong (which I also did). Enjoy!
