“Uniting the capabilities of the nation’s two leading technology-forward credit unions will allow us to innovate and push the boundaries to deliver more elevated experiences by making material investments in products and services to meet the needs of our growing membership,” said Greg Mitchell, President and CEO of First Tech Federal Credit Union. “With shared principles of people helping people, the new organization will also become the single-largest national philanthropic leader in the industry, donating more than $4 million annually to positively impact our local communities.”
