A Message from Q2’s New President

By Kirk Coleman

The ability to adapt and respond to rapid changes in the industry has become undeniably critical in recent years. Embracing both opportunities and challenges with agility and foresight is essential to thriving in this dynamic market. This is especially true in the financial services industry, where account holder expectations continue to evolve, requiring banks and credit unions to promptly respond in order to stay competitive.

As a former Q2 customer, I understand the pressures that bankers face. In my new role as Q2’s President, I am committed to ensuring Q2 continues to enable our customers to navigate these uncertain times and emerge stronger. I know firsthand that Q2 has the right talent, technology and vision to help financial institutions transform their businesses and serve their communities.

Thank you for your partnership!
