Jon Schubin is a financial communications strategist and writer with more than fifteen years working at the intersection of fintech, capital markets, and the media that covers them.

He speaks and writes about how financial companies communicate in a world being reshaped by AI, shifting regulation, and changing audience behaviour — and why so much of what gets said sounds identical. His particular interest is in the gap between what financial brands claim and what their audiences actually hear: where thought leadership becomes noise, where conference consensus hardens into cliché, and where a genuinely distinct point of view can still cut through.

His analysis covers the technology, business models, and narratives driving change across payments, banking, capital markets, and digital assets — with a focus on what the industry's own language reveals about where it is actually heading.

Jon is Global Head of Content at Cognito, the specialist financial communications firm, where he works with leading institutions and challengers across New York and London. He speaks Russian and is working on a long-term reporting project on Ukraine and the surrounding region.

Orion Willis is a seasoned financial planner and the founder of Prime Wealth Advisors, a firm dedicated to providing clients with comprehensive, personalized financial planning services. With over 28 years of experience in the financial industry, he has spent his career helping individuals and families navigate the complexities of wealth management, retirement planning, estate planning, and tax strategies. His primary focus is delivering integrated financial solutions, ensuring clients achieve long-term financial security and peace of mind.

Raised in Lake Side, Arizona, Orion's interest in finance began early, which led him to pursue a degree in finance at Arizona State University. At ASU, he gained valuable experience through an internship at MetLife, where he noticed a significant gap in the financial services industry.

In 2002, Orion founded Prime Wealth Advisors to provide clients with a holistic approach to financial planning. His firm offers a full range of services, including retirement planning, tax strategies, estate planning, and wealth management. By addressing all aspects of a client’s financial life, Prime Wealth Advisors ensures clients receive customized plans designed to meet their unique needs and goals.

As a fiduciary, Orion is committed to always acting in the best interests of his clients. He is legally obligated to put his clients’ needs ahead of his own, ensuring that every recommendation he makes benefits them, not him. This commitment to integrity and trust has earned him the loyalty and respect of his clients, who know they can rely on his guidance for sound financial decisions.

Outside of his professional life, Orion values his family and is committed to his community. He is married with two children and enjoys spending time with them whenever possible. He also actively supports local initiatives, such as the Sun City West Pickleball Club, where his contributions have helped foster growth and support for charitable efforts.
