About the TIC

The TIC is a group of Advocis volunteers who are passionate about technology. Some members have started their own fintechs; others have worked at the tech giants; and some are responsible for implementing fintech solutions in their own firms. TIC members are eager and proud to give back to the Advocis community by lending their effort and expertise for the benefit of all.

In the year ahead, the TIC will focus on:

• DigiCat, the TIC’s marquee project, is a catalogue of key advisor-facing digital tools that can greatly enhance your practice
• Tech awareness and member engagement through presentations at Advocis chapters and to a national audience through webinars
• Improving the digital capabilities of Advocis by being a trusted resource to the National Board of Directors
• Being part of the conversation and having a voice at the table with the regulators that are fast-tracking fintechs

What the TIC is looking for:

The TIC is looking for new members who have:

• Interest and experience in fintech matters
• The bandwidth to be a full participant and work directly on projects and presentations that benefit the Advocis community
• Experience on the tech side of product distribution at the dealer/MGA or manufacturer level
