The Banking Virtual Investor Conference, scheduled for Thursday, March 26, 2026, will feature executive presentations from 10 community banks, financial holding companies, and banking service providers. Co-hosted by Alliance Advisors, an independent advisory firm serving over 800 public company clients, the event offers investors direct access to management teams through live presentations, real-time Q&A sessions, and one-on-one meetings via the Virtual Investor Conferences platform. This format represents a significant shift toward greater transparency and accessibility in investor relations for community banking institutions.
Alliance Advisors brings specialized expertise to the conference, working with more than 200 bank clients on shareholder engagement, investor ownership intelligence, proxy solicitation, governance advisory, and retail outreach strategies. Their involvement underscores the conference's focus on meaningful investor-company interactions rather than traditional one-way presentations.

The conference opens with a keynote presentation from Kara Kennedy, President of ClearTrust LLC, a full-service stock transfer agent serving public and private companies and community banks. Following the keynote, presentations will proceed throughout the day from institutions including MVB Financial Corp., Alpine Banks of Colorado, United Bancorporation of Alabama Inc., Ledyard Financial Group Inc., Endeavor Bancorp, First Resource Bancorp Inc., White River Bancshares Company, QNB Corp., and Potomac Bancshares, Inc. Each company will present for 30 minutes, allowing for detailed discussions of their operations, strategies, and financial performance.
David Shapiro, Chief Executive Officer of B2i Digital, emphasized the unique value proposition of the conference format. "These 10 management teams aren't just showing up to present a slide deck. They're here to take questions live and sit down with investors one-on-one. They chose this format because they want to connect with investors of all types, from institutional funds to individual investors and advisors. VIC conferences draw that full range, and that level of direct engagement with the people actually running these banks is hard to find anywhere else," Shapiro stated. B2i Digital serves as the Official Marketing Partner for Virtual Investor Conferences, supporting events through digital marketing, social media, digital profiles of presenting companies, and direct investor outreach.

Virtual Investor Conferences, an OTC Markets Group Inc. property, regularly features public companies from exchanges worldwide including NYSE, Nasdaq, TSX, TSXV, CSE, ASX, LSE, and OTC Markets. The conference series provides an interactive forum for publicly traded companies to meet directly with investors through digital channels. For community banks, which often receive less analyst coverage than larger financial institutions, such events offer valuable opportunities to communicate directly with current and potential investors, potentially improving market visibility and liquidity.
The Banking Virtual Investor Conference represents a growing trend toward digital engagement in financial markets, particularly for smaller banking institutions seeking to broaden their investor base. By facilitating direct conversations between management teams and investors, the conference addresses information asymmetry that can disadvantage community banks in capital markets. This increased transparency benefits both companies seeking investment and investors seeking deeper understanding of banking operations and opportunities in the community banking sector.
