What to Expect

Across the system, teams are rethinking how they manage risk, operate efficiently, and support borrowers and rural communities. Technology plays a growing role in those decisions. The summit brings Farm Credit institutions together with Salesforce and Zennify to share perspective, compare approaches, and look at what’s taking shape across the system.

Over two days, you’ll hear where innovation is heading, see how others are applying it today, and spend time connecting with peers who are working through similar challenges.

Attendees will also have the opportunity to share demos or examples from their own organizations to spark ideas and collective progress.

  • Real examples from Farm Credit institutions applying technology in practice
  • Perspective on how Salesforce and data support risk, efficiency, and growth
  • Exploration of emerging capabilities across lending, collections, and compliance
  • Time for discussion, connection, and shared learning across the system
