Chief Technology Officer Zac Streelman to Speak at AI for SMBs Conference

SUMMERVILLE, S.C. (Sept. 6, 2024) – Zac Streelman, the Chief Technology Officer at REV, has been selected as a featured speaker at GCM’s AI for SMBs Conference, scheduled to take place on Sept. 17 at the Lowcountry Conference Center, 406 Sigma Drive, Summerville. Streelman, a distinguished expert in technology and digital innovation, will join six other industry leaders to provide insights on the transformative impact of AI within the business landscape.

His keynote address, titled It’s Not Artificial Intelligence, It’s Augmented Intelligence, will offer attendees a practical perspective on the role of AI in enhancing business operations. Streelman will delve into the strategic implementation of AI as a tool to augment team capabilities rather than replace them, offering valuable insights on maximizing the potential of AI-driven technologies for small and medium-sized businesses (SMB).

“At REV, we view the integration of AI technologies as possibly the most transformative opportunity since the advent of the personal computer for the financial industry,” Streelman said. “AI has proven to enhance operational efficiencies, streamline decision-making, and provide personalized, effortless self-service solutions that were previously out of reach for many. Over the next 5-10 years, we anticipate AI will significantly reshape the credit union industry by enabling more accurate risk assessments, optimizing member experiences, and driving innovation in product offerings.”

Streelman explains that REV is progressively investing in AI-driven tools and methodologies with a focus on leveraging these technologies for the benefit of its members. “We understand that while the potential of leveraging AI is immense, it comes with the responsibility to protect our members’ data and privacy,” Streelman said. “Therefore, we are committed to balancing innovation with robust data security measures, ensuring that trust and transparency remain at the core of our operations.”

REV joins the event as the Platinum Sponsor and plays a significant role in supporting local businesses, aligning with GCM’s mission to foster SMB growth and innovation.
