We wouldn’t be where we are without your ongoing trust and commitment. Unit was born into a booming tech ecosystem. We make this announcement as the tide is changing, but innovation doesn’t stop. The giant financial services industry will continue to transform quickly over the next 10 years. Individuals and businesses will continue to choose financial services that serve them well, and builders will continue to meet this demand. The capital and infrastructure are there, and we’re proud to play a part in enabling this.”
