Set near Austin in beautiful Lost Pines, Texas, THINK 09 was an inspiring event. Speakers from a wide range of business sectors were on hand, including Nike, Porsche, Disney, Target, Wal-Mart, and David Plouffe, Campaign Manager for Barack Obama’s 2008 campaign, who set the tone for the conference by illustrating how underdogs can, in fact, beat the odds. This was a relevant theme that resonated as credit unions looked to increase their market share and gain ground on larger financial institutions.
