The mortgage market remains complex. Rates continue to shift. Demand is uneven across regions and income segments. AI is changing how we innovate and the pace of that innovation. Regulatory expectations are evolving at the federal and state levels. And building peer connections remains vital to how teams learn, grow, and drive more business.
MeridianLink® LIVE! is designed for exactly this environment, and it’s not just about our technology. This year, we’ve expanded the agenda to include nationally recognized economists, regulatory leaders, AI experts, and industry practitioners to present alongside our industry-renowned team.
If growth is your priority, this forum can help you achieve just that!
Sessions: Setting the economic, AI, & regulatory contexts
Here we will highlight independent, third-party keynote speakers exclusively to our mortgage lending attendees.
- The Mortgage Bankers Association’s Chief Economist, Michael Fratantoni, will open our track with a data-driven outlook on interest rates, housing supply, credit conditions, and demand. His session will provide a macroeconomic framework to help lenders move beyond headlines and think strategically about origination volume, purchase activity, affordability, and refinance potential.
- Arch Mortgage Insurance’s Vice President of Industry Technology, Will Vickers, will deliver a forward-looking perspective on artificial intelligence fundamentals, generative AI tools, and what responsible adoption looks like in mortgage lending.
- Mitchell Sandler’s Co-Managing Partner, Daniella Casseres, will provide an updated view of enforcement trends and emerging compliance risks, so mortgage lenders can understand where scrutiny stands today and potentially anticipate where it may head next.
Sessions: Turn insight into action
- Turning Data Into Opportunity: Learn how lenders are translating data into measurable growth by identifying high-value segments, improving wallet share, and strengthening retention.
- Artificial Intelligence in Action: A working session demonstrating how MeridianLink® Mortgage and our AI partners are applying AI to drive operational efficiency and borrower impact.
- Stay Ahead of Changing Borrower Expectations: Explore how to solve behavioral economic challenges through technology. You’ll learn why borrowers may never start, hesitate, delay, or abandon mortgage applications, as well as how MeridianLink Mortgage POS partners foster trust, clarity, and conversions.
- Advanced Features & Configurations: Unlock additional value from MeridianLink Mortgage and enhance end-to-end lending performance, regardless of your role.
Sessions: Networking & real conversations
Valuable takeaways and relationships don’t only come from our thought leaders—they also come from each other. That’s why we’ve included What’s New & Whiteboard and Peer-To-Peer Roundtable sessions that create opportunities to exchange:
- Product feedback, improvement ideas, and workflow enhancements
- Challenges, successes, and practical solutions that you’re experiencing
We intentionally schedule these sessions immediately prior to breaks so conversations can continue, connections can deepen, and peer engagement can extend beyond the sessions.
