A Custom Innovation Program Built Around Your Credit Union Priorities

Firecracker Focus takes innovation beyond awareness and into application. This tailored program brings curated Fintech solutions into focused sessions designed around your credit union’s specific challenges, priorities, and strategic goals.

Talk With IgniteFI Explore A Session

This is where ideas move from interesting to ACTIONABLE.

Each session is built to help your team explore how a solution applies to your environment, what areas of the organization are impacted, and what the future state could look like.

Programs can be delivered as a one-time session or as an ongoing quarterly series, depending on your goals.

Moving From Visibility to Application

Firecracker Focus builds on the visibility created through Firecracker and takes the next step—connecting solutions directly to real credit union needs.

Rather than a broad showcase, Firecracker Focus is designed around:

  • One credit union
  • Defined challenge areas
  • Specific operational or strategic priorities
IgniteFI works with your team to shape the session, identify relevant Fintech solutions, and guide a structured exploration of how those solutions may apply within your organization.

What Makes This Different

Focused on Real Problems & Real Impact

Each session is structured to explore:

  • How a solution addresses a defined problem
  • Which areas of the credit union are impacted
  • What operational or member experience changes may occur
  • What a future-state environment could look like
This creates a more practical and meaningful evaluation process.

How It Works

IgniteFI works with your team to design a focused program that includes:

  • Defining priority challenges or opportunity areas
  • Identifying and curating relevant Fintech participants
  • Structuring sessions around real use cases
  • Facilitating discussion across stakeholders
  • Outlining potential next steps following the session

Program Structures

One-Time Session
