VaultRight Honored as ICBA ThinkTECH Accelerator Most Valuable Participant
Press Release: Dallas (July 30, 2026) —VaultRight, a secure, mobile- and web-based platform that replaces paper processes and strengthens audit readiness for branch operations, today announced it was recognized by the Independent Community Bankers of America® (ICBA) at its recent ThinkTECH Showcase during the Graduate School of Banking at Colorado in Boulder as the program’s Most Valuable Participant (MVP). The MVP Award recognizes the fintech who not only saw the most positive reaction during the program but also went above and beyond from a participation perspective.
“True digital transformation requires updating historic, manual processes to align with today’s digital infrastructure,” said ICBA Executive Vice President and Chief Innovation Officer Wayne Miller. “As community banks seek to advance their innovation agendas, companies like VaultRight help to support their journeys. We’re pleased to recognize their solution with their selection as AP11’s MVP award recipient."
VaultRight replaces paper logbooks, manual key boxes, and combination processes with mobile-first digital controls backed by real-time alerts, dashboards, and robust reporting—helping bank leaders spot exceptions early and strengthen accountability across locations to keep branch operations secure and compliant.
VaultRight was among the latest ThinkTECH cohort to present their solutions to the community banking industry. The showcase revealed community-bank specific fintech solutions covering a broad range of key areas, including artificial intelligence (AI), payments, data strategy, fraud prevention and detection, customer experience, and more.
"By participating in the ICBA ThinkTECH Accelerator we gained a deeper understanding of how we can best address community bank needs,” said Eric Hilaire, CEO of VaultRight. “The feedback was insightful and allowed us to better tailor our efforts to directly address pain points that were raised. We are honored to have been designated as the ‘MVP’ and look forward to advancing our relationship with community banks nationwide.”
Since its inception, the ICBA ThinkTECH Accelerator has promoted bank-enabled technology solutions designed specifically for community banks and their customers.
