Welcome, everyone, to another episode of The Tearsheet Podcast, where we explore financial services together with an eye on technology, innovation, emerging models, and changing expectations. I’m Tearsheet’s editor in chief, Zack Miller.

Today, we're joined by Don Relyea, the Chief Innovation Officer at U.S. Bank, and Todder Moning, who leads the bank's applied foresights practice. They've recently returned from scouring the halls of CES, the annual consumer electronics show, on a mission to uncover the latest trends and emerging technologies that could disrupt - or benefit - the financial services industry.

From the rise of edge AI and machine vision capabilities that could enable personalized, privacy-preserving experiences, to sustainable innovations like water generation devices that challenge traditional infrastructure, Don and Todder share the diverse insights they gathered at this year's CES. You'll hear how the U.S. Bank innovation team is working to transform these market signals into strategic advantages for the bank. They'll explain how technologies first showcased in consumer products are reshaping customer expectations, and how the bank is preparing business leaders to adapt to this rapidly evolving landscape. By considering both the upsides and potential downsides of emerging innovations, the applied foresights practice is helping ensure US Bank stays ahead of - rather than chasing - the pace of change.

So settle in, as we dive into the future-focused mindset that's guiding innovation at one of the country's largest banks. Let's get started.
