One ticket includes: * Appetisers during the event * 1 free drink! *(FYI we're also processing registrations through [Luma](https://luma.com/dmlh7j5j) so the total number of attendees will be a lot higher than you see on here!)* We're back! Fintech with Me! is now Austin Fintech Social and we're excited to be back to running regular events. The **Austin Fintech Social** is a new get-together for the people building fintech in Texas — and we're hoping to make it a regular thing. It's open to everyone. No guest list, no approval queue. Just one good panel, one honest fireside chat, and then drinks and nibbles with the room. We're keeping the talking short and the mingling long. The idea is simple: get fintech operators, marketers, founders, and the curious in one room, talk about where the industry is actually heading, and then let the conversations keep going over a drink. If the first one lands, there'll be many more. ## **What to expect** **Panel:** Real AI Use Cases in Product: What's Actually Working *Speakers:* * [Jonathan Placa](https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonplaca/?utm_source=luma), COO at [Billd](https://billd.com/?utm_source=luma) * [Adrian Rizo](https://www.linkedin.com/in/rizoadrian/?utm_source=luma), Product Management Leader at [Kestra Financial](https://www.kestrafinancial.com/?utm_source=luma) *Moderator:* [Julie VerHage-Greenberg](https://www.linkedin.com/in/julie-verhage-greenberg-1748801b/?utm_source=luma), Consultant at Quinnovation **Fireside chat:** Inside Hippo's Repositioning: From Tech-Heavy Brand to Homeowner Trust *Speaker:* * [Courtney Klosterman](https://www.linkedin.com/in/courtneyklosterman/?utm_source=luma), Director of Brand & Communications at [Hippo Insurance](https://www.hippo.com/?utm_source=luma) *Moderator*: [Araminta Robertson](https://www.linkedin.com/in/aramintarobertson/?utm_source=luma), Director at [Mint Studios](https://mintcopywritingstudios.com/?utm_source=luma) If you're building, marketing, investing in, or just nosy about fintech — come along.
