Eltropy, the leading AI-powered conversions platform for community financial institutions (CFIs), today announced that Co-founder and CEO Ashish Garg will deliver a keynote address at Future Branches 2024, retail banking's premier conference for branch innovation, December 4-6 in Austin, Texas. 

Garg will present "Digital Doors, Physical Floors: Branches Reimagined with AI" on Wednesday, together with Eltropy Head of AI Saahil Kamath on December 4, at 11:55 am at the Austin Marriott Downtown. The session will explore how credit unions and community banks are leveraging Artificial Intelligence (AI) and video banking to transform traditional branches into technology-enabled service centers while maintaining the personal touch that sets community institutions apart.

"Branch banking isn't dying – it's evolving into something more powerful," said Garg. "Our credit union and community bank partners are proving that when you combine smart technology with local presence, you create an unbeatable advantage over the big banks. The real innovation isn't about replacing human interaction – it's about using AI and video banking to make every branch expert available everywhere, instantly."

• Branch network optimization

• Employee hiring and training
• Digital experience enhancement
• Customer relationship development

Eltropy will also showcase its Branch Operations Suite in the Future Branches Innovation Hub, demonstrating how community financial institutions can leverage AI and video banking to transform every location into a full-service branch while optimizing staff utilization and improving customer experience.
