I was first introduced to Ignite FI when Bonifii (orginally CULedger) was just getting started. The team singlehandedly tackled the job of educating the CU industry about SSI and verifiable credentials. I watched Ignite FI pull off multiple marketing campaigns introducing a new technology to a skeptical industry. This team knows their audience and knows how to message them—a real marketing communications pro.
