About the Conferences
SuperCommunity Bank Conferences provide community banks with an opportunity to meet with an audience of investors and analysts that specifically target the small-, micro-, and mid-cap banking sector. Presenting banks have ranged in size from approximately $200 million in assets to over $20 billion, and come from all parts of the country. The agenda for each conference typically includes banks from each region, and others that want to meet with investors from regions where they are less known. These conferences are unique in that both buy-side and sell-side analysts are invited, which provides additional exposure for banks that want to increase their research coverage. Community banks throughout the country present at one or more of the four SuperCommunity Bank Conferences: West Coast (San Francisco), Mid-Atlantic (Philadelphia), Southeast (Atlanta), and Midwest (Chicago).
