Spark Tank Unfiltered: Your Inside Look at CU Spark Tank

The 2026 CU Spark Tank Competition is underway, and now’s the time for Michigan credit unions to identify a young professional ready to share bold ideas and grow their leadership skills.

CU Spark Tank gives emerging leaders the chance to pitch innovative products, services, or concepts that strengthen their credit union and the broader movement, while building confidence, presentation skills, and strategic thinking along the way.

To help participants, the CU Spark Tank Learning Series offers quick, practical one-hour virtual sessions. Next up: Spark Tank Unfiltered – February 9th. Hear directly from past finalists as they share candid advice, lessons learned, and insider tips to help this year’s participants succeed.

Chapter competitions are coming fast! The first, in the Grand River Chapter, takes place Feb. 24, with several more in March and April. Grand River participants should submit their application by Feb. 20.

If your credit union hasn’t selected a participant yet but is holding internal competitions, please let us know! Reach out to Andrea Tucker.

Learn more, register for sessions, and view past recordings at: mcul.org/CuSparkTank.

Your idea could be the next big spark!
